Jeremiah 51:38-40
Easy-to-Read Version
38 “The people of Babylon are like roaring young lions.
They growl like baby lions.
39 They are acting like powerful lions.
I will give a party for them.
I will make them drunk.
They will laugh and have a good time,
and then they will sleep forever.
They will never wake up.”
This is what the Lord said.
40 “Babylon will be like sheep, rams, and goats waiting to be killed.
I will lead them to the slaughter.
