Jeremiah 51:39-41
Common English Bible
39 They are ready to devour,
so I’ll prepare the feast
and mix the drinks!
But after their noisy drunkenness,
they will fall fast asleep.
They will sleep forever,
never to get up,
declares the Lord.
40 I’ll lead them off
like lambs for slaughter,
like rams and goats.
41 How Sheshach[a] has been defeated,
the pride of the whole earth taken captive!
How Babylon has become a wasteland
among the nations!
