Jeremiah 51:39-41
New American Standard Bible
39 When they become heated up, I will serve them their banquet
And (A)make them drunk, so that they may rejoice in triumph,
And may (B)sleep a perpetual sleep
And not wake up,” declares the Lord.
40 “I will bring them down like [a]lambs (C)to the slaughter,
Like rams together with male goats.
41 “How [b](D)Sheshak has been captured,
And (E)the praise of the whole earth has been seized!
How Babylon has become an object of horror among the nations!
