Jeremiah 51:54-56

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵⁴ Cries of agony are heard from Babylon.
Sounds of terrible destruction are heard
from the land of the Babylonians.
⁵⁵ The Lord will destroy Babylon.
He will silence the loud noise coming from it.
Waves of enemies will come roaring in like raging water.
The noise will be heard everywhere.
⁵⁶ A destroyer will attack Babylon,
its soldiers will be captured,
and their bows and arrows will be broken.

“I, the Lord, am a God who punishes evil.
I will certainly punish them.
