Jeremiah 51:54-56

New Living Translation

⁵⁴ “Listen! Hear the cry of Babylon,
    the sound of great destruction from the land of the Babylonians.
⁵⁵ For the Lord is destroying Babylon.
    He will silence her loud voice.
Waves of enemies pound against her;
    the noise of battle rings through the city.
⁵⁶ Destroying armies come against Babylon.
    Her mighty men are captured,
    and their weapons break in their hands.
For the Lord is a God who gives just punishment;
    he always repays in full.
