Jeremiah 51:13-15
EasyEnglish Bible

13 You people of Babylon, who live beside many rivers,
it is now time for you to die.
You have become rich with many valuable things,
but now your lives will finish.’[a]

14 The Lord Almighty has made this strong promise

with the authority of his own name:
‘I will cause the enemy's soldiers to fill your cities.
They will come like a big crowd of locusts.
They will shout loudly when they take your city for themselves.’

A song to praise the Lord[b]

15 The Lord used his power to make the earth.
    He used his wisdom to make it strong.
He knew how to put the sky to cover the earth.
