Jeremiah 51:60-62

New International Reader's Version

⁶⁰ Jeremiah had written about all the trouble that would come on Babylon. He had written it down on a scroll. It included everything that had been recorded about Babylon. ⁶¹ Jeremiah said to Seraiah, “When you get to Babylon, here’s what I want you to do. Make sure that you read all these words out loud. ⁶² Then say, ‘Lord, you have said you will destroy this place. You have said that no people or animals will live here. It will be empty forever.’
