Jeremiah 51:56-58
New American Standard Bible 1995
56 For the (A)destroyer is coming against her, against Babylon,
And her mighty men will be captured,
Their (B)bows are shattered;
For the Lord is a God of (C)recompense,
He will fully repay.
57 “I will (D)make her princes and her wise men drunk,
Her governors, her prefects and her mighty men,
That they may sleep a (E)perpetual sleep and not wake up,”
(F)Declares the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
58 Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“The broad (G)wall of Babylon will be completely razed
And her high (H)gates will be set on fire;
So the peoples will (I)toil for nothing,
And the nations become (J)exhausted only for fire.”
Jeremiah 51:56-58
New International Version
56 A destroyer(A) will come against Babylon;
her warriors will be captured,
and their bows will be broken.(B)
For the Lord is a God of retribution;
he will repay(C) in full.
57 I will make her officials(D) and wise(E) men drunk,(F)
her governors, officers and warriors as well;
they will sleep(G) forever and not awake,”
declares the King,(H) whose name is the Lord Almighty.
58 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
