Jeremiah 51:36-40 - The Lord Will Help Israel
36 Therefore, Thus, sith Yahweh, Behold me! pleading thy cause, So then I will execute the avenging of thee; And will dry up her sea, And make dry her spring: 37 Thus shall Babylon become - Heaps A habitation of jackals An astonishment, and A hissing, Without inhabitant. 38 Together, like wild lions, shall they roar, - They have growled like lions' whelps. 39 When they are heated, I will spread their banquets, And let them drink that they may become uproarious, So shall they sleep an age-abiding sleep and not wake, - Declareth Yahweh. 40 I will bring them down As fat lambs to slaughter, - As rams with he-goats.
