Jeremiah 51:7-9
New American Standard Bible 1995
7 Babylon has been a golden (A)cup in the hand of the Lord,
Intoxicating all the earth.
The (B)nations have drunk of her wine;
Therefore the nations are (C)going mad.
8 Suddenly (D)Babylon has fallen and been broken;
(E)Wail over her!
(F)Bring [a]balm for her pain;
Perhaps she may be healed.
9 We applied healing to Babylon, but she was not healed;
Forsake her and (G)let us each go to his own country,
For her judgment has (H)reached to heaven
And [b]towers up to the very skies.
