Jeremiah 51:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 Make bright the arrows: [a]gather the shields: the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the King of the Medes: for his purpose is against Babel to destroy it, because it is the [b]vengeance of the Lord, and the vengeance of his Temple.
12 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babel, make the watch strong: set up the watchmen: prepare the scouts: for the Lord hath both devised, and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babel.
13 O thou that dwellest upon many [c]waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, even the [d]end of thy covetousness.
