Jeremiah 51:29-31
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
29 The land trembles and writhes,
for the Lord’s purposes against Babylon stand,
to make the land of Babylon a desolation,
without inhabitant.
30 The warriors of Babylon have given up fighting,
they remain in their strongholds;
their strength has failed,
they have become women;
her buildings are set on fire,
her bars are broken.
31 One runner runs to meet another,
and one messenger to meet another,
to tell the king of Babylon
that his city is taken from end to end:

29 The land trembles(A) and writhes,
for the Lord’s purposes(B) against Babylon stand—

and messenger follows messenger
to announce to the king of Babylon
that his entire city is captured,(J)
