Jeremiah 51:37-41
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 51

37Babylon will become a heap of ruins, a haunt of jackals, An object of horror and hissing, without inhabitants. 38They will roar together like young lions, They will growl like lions’ cubs. 39When they become heated up, I will serve them their banquet And make them drunk, so that they may rejoice in triumph, And may sleep a perpetual sleep And not wake up,' declares the Lord. 40'I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, Like rams together with male goats. 41'How Sheshak has been captured, And the praise of the whole earth has been seized! How Babylon has become an object of horror among the nations!
King James Version

Chapter 51

37And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
38They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps.
39In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the Lord.
40I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats.
41How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 51

37Babylon will become a heap of rubble, a jackals’ den, a desolation and an object of scorn, without inhabitant. 38They will roar together like young lions; they will growl like lion cubs.
39While they are flushed with heat, I will serve them a feast, and I will make them drunk so that they celebrate. Then they will fall asleep forever and never wake up. This is the Lord’s declaration.
40I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams together with male goats. 41How Sheshach has been captured, the praise of the whole earth seized. What a horror Babylon has become among the nations!
New Living Translation

Chapter 51

37and Babylon will become a heap of ruins, haunted by jackals. She will be an object of horror and contempt, a place where no one lives. 38Her people will roar together like strong lions. They will growl like lion cubs. 39And while they lie inflamed with all their wine, I will prepare a different kind of feast for them. I will make them drink until they fall asleep, and they will never wake up again,' says the Lord. 40'I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams and goats to be sacrificed.
41'How Babylon is fallen — great Babylon, praised throughout the earth! Now she has become an object of horror among the nations.
