Jeremiah 51:38-40

New Life Version

³⁸ Together the people of Babylon make noise like young lions. They sound like a lion’s young ones. ³⁹ But when they are hot, I will give them a special supper and make them drunk. Then they will be happy and fall asleep, and will never wake up,” says the Lord. ⁴⁰ “I will bring them down like lambs to be killed, like rams and male goats.
