Jeremiah 51:36-40 - The Lord Will Help Israel

36 Therefore thus sayeth the LORD: Behold, I will defend thy cause, and avenge thee: I will drink up her sea, and dry up her water springs. 37 Babylon shall become a heap of stones, a dwelling place for dragons, a fearfulness and wondering, because no man dwelleth there. 38 They shall roar together like lions, and as the young lions when they be angry, so shall they bend themselves. 39 In their heat I shall set drink before them, and they shall be drunken for joy: Then shall they sleep an everlasting sleep, and never wake, sayeth the LORD. 40 I shall carry them down to be slain like sheep, like whethers and goats.
