Jeremiah 51:29-31
Common English Bible
29 The earth quakes and trembles
because the Lord’s plans against Babylon are fulfilled:
to reduce Babylon to a wasteland,
with no one left in it.
30 Babylon’s warriors quit fighting;
they hide in their fortifications.
Their strength is worn out;
their courage is gone!
Babylon’s houses are burned down,
and its gates are smashed.
31 Courier joins courier,
messenger joins messenger
to relate the news to the king of Babylon
that his entire city has fallen.

New International Version
Jeremiah 51:29-31
New International Version
29 The land trembles(A) and writhes,
for the Lord’s purposes(B) against Babylon stand—
to lay waste(C) the land of Babylon
so that no one will live there.(D)
30 Babylon’s warriors(E) have stopped fighting;
they remain in their strongholds.
Their strength is exhausted;
they have become weaklings.(F)
Her dwellings are set on fire;(G)
the bars(H) of her gates are broken.
31 One courier(I) follows another
and messenger follows messenger
to announce to the king of Babylon
that his entire city is captured,(J)
