Jeremiah 51:30-32
Legacy Standard Bible
30 The (A)mighty men of Babylon have ceased fighting;
They inhabit the strongholds;
(B)Their might is dried up;
They are becoming (C)like women;
Their dwelling places are set on fire;
The (D)bars of her gates are broken.
31 One (E)runner runs to meet [a]another,
And one (F)messenger to meet [b]another,
To give a message to the king of Babylon
That his city has been captured from end to end;
32 The fords also have been seized,
And they have burned the marshes with fire,
And the men of war are terrified.

Jeremiah 51:30-32
New International Version
30 Babylon’s warriors(A) have stopped fighting;
they remain in their strongholds.
Their strength is exhausted;
they have become weaklings.(B)
Her dwellings are set on fire;(C)
the bars(D) of her gates are broken.
31 One courier(E) follows another
and messenger follows messenger
to announce to the king of Babylon
that his entire city is captured,(F)
32 the river crossings seized,
the marshes set on fire,(G)
and the soldiers terrified.(H)”
