Jeremiah 51:31-33

International Standard Version

³¹ One runner runs to meet another runner,^[a]
    and one messenger to meet another messenger,^[b]
to tell the king of Babylon that his city has been seized
    from one end to the other.^[c]
32 The fords have been captured,
    and the marshes burned with fire.
        The soldiers are terrified.
³³ For this is what the Lord of the Heavenly Armies,
    the God of Israel, says:
“The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor
    at the time when it’s pounded down.^[d]
In just a little while, the time of her harvest will come.”
