Jeremiah 51:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible

7 Babel hath been as a golden cup in the [a]Lord’s hand, that made all the earth drunken, the nations have drunken of her wine, therefore do the nations [b]rage.

8 (A)Babel is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howl for her, bring balm for her sore, if she may be healed.

9 We would have cured Babel, but she could not be healed: forsake her, and let [c]us go everyone into his own country: for her judgment is come up into heaven, and is lifted up to the clouds.

Jeremiah 51:7-9
New International Version

7 Babylon was a gold cup(A) in the Lord’s hand;
    she made the whole earth drunk.
The nations drank her wine;
    therefore they have now gone mad.
8 Babylon will suddenly fall(B) and be broken.
    Wail over her!
Get balm(C) for her pain;
    perhaps she can be healed.

9 “‘We would have healed Babylon,
    but she cannot be healed;
let us leave(D) her and each go to our own land,
    for her judgment(E) reaches to the skies,
    it rises as high as the heavens.’
