Jeremiah 51:42-44

New International Reader's Version

⁴² Babylon’s enemies will sweep over it like an ocean.
    Like roaring waves they will cover it.
⁴³ The towns of Babylon will be empty.
    It will become a dry and desert land.
No one will live there.
    No one will even travel through it.
⁴⁴ I will punish the god named Bel in Babylon.
    I will make Bel spit out what he has swallowed.
The nations will not come and worship him anymore.
    And Babylon’s walls will fall down.
