Jeremiah 51:40-42

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴⁰I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter,
like rams and goats.^(A)

⁴¹How Sheshach^[a] is taken;
    the pride of the whole earth seized!
How Babylon has become
    an object of horror among the nations!^(B)

    she has been covered by its tumultuous waves.^(C)
