Jeremiah 51:51-53

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵¹ We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: because strangers are come upon the sanctuaries of the house of the Lord.

⁵² Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will visit her graven things, and in all her land the wounded shall groan:

⁵³ If Babylon should mount up to heaven, and establish her strength on high: from me there should come spoilers upon her, saith the Lord.
