Jeremiah 50:38

A Message Concerning Babylon

³⁷ A sword is on his horses and on his chariot, And on all the rabble who are in her midst, And they have become women; A sword is on her treasuries, And they have been spoiled; ³⁸ A sword is on her waters, and they have been dried up, For it is a land of graven images, And in idols they do boast themselves. ³⁹ Therefore dwell do Ziim with Iim, Yea, dwelt in her have daughters of the ostrich, And it is not inhabited any more for ever, Nor dwelt in unto all generations.
