Jeremiah 50:40-42

New Century Version

⁴⁰God completely destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah
and the towns around them,” says the Lord.
“In the same way no people will live in Babylon,
and no human being will stay there.

⁴¹“Look! An army is coming from the north.
    A powerful nation and many kings
    are coming together from all around the world.
⁴²Their armies have bows and spears.
    The soldiers are cruel and have no mercy.
As the soldiers come riding on their horses,
    the sound is loud like the roaring sea.
They stand in their places, ready for battle.
    They are ready to attack you, city of Babylon.
