Jeremiah 51:42-44

International Standard Version

⁴² The sea will come up against Babylon,
    and she will be covered by wave upon wave.^[a]
43 Her cities will become an object of horror,
    a dry land and a desert,
a land in which no one lives,
    and through which no human being passes.
⁴⁴ I’ll punish Bel^[b] in Babylon,
    and I’ll make what he has swallowed
        come out of his mouth.
The nations will no longer stream to him.
    Even the wall of Babylon will fall.
