Jeremiah 51:53-55

New Catholic Bible

⁵³ Even if Babylon were to scale the heavens
    and reinforce her inaccessible citadel,
I would send forth destroyers,
    and they would come to her.
⁵⁴ Agonized cries can be heard from Babylon,
    and sounds of great destruction
    from the land of the Chaldeans.
⁵⁵ For the Lord is laying waste to Babylon
    and stilling her loud cries of anguish.
Massive waves of enemies will roar like mighty waters,
    and their clamor will be heard from afar.
