Jeremiah 51:31-33

Authorized (King James) Version

³¹ One post shall run to meet another,
and one messenger to meet another,
to shew the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end,
³² and that the passages are stopped,
and the reeds they have burned with fire,
and the men of war are affrighted.
³³ For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel;
The daughter of Babylon is like a threshingfloor,
it is time to thresh her:
yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
