51 The Eternal has this to say regarding Babylon:

Eternal One: Watch as I stir up a destroying wind
        against Babylon and the people of Chaldea.[a]
    I will send outsiders to sift through this nation,
        separating the wheat from the chaff, laying waste this land.
    They will fight her from every side
        on that fateful day of Babylon’s reckoning.
