Jeremiah 51:28-30

Common English Bible

²⁸ Prepare the nations for war against her,
    the kings of Media,
    its governors, all its officials,
    and all the countries they rule.

²⁹ The earth quakes and trembles
    because the Lord’s plans against Babylon are fulfilled:
        to reduce Babylon to a wasteland,
        with no one left in it.
³⁰ Babylon’s warriors quit fighting;
    they hide in their fortifications.
Their strength is worn out;
    their courage is gone!
Babylon’s houses are burned down,
    and its gates are smashed.
