Jeremiah 51:30-32

Complete Jewish Bible

³⁰ Bavel’s warriors have given up fighting;
they remain in their fortresses;
their courage has failed; they are now like women.
Her homes are on fire, her gate-bars broken.
³¹ One runner runs to meet another,
messenger to meet messenger,
to report to the king of Bavel
that every part of his city is taken,
³² the fords have been occupied,
and the swamp thickets set on fire,
while the warriors are seized with panic.
