Jeremiah 51:13-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 51
13You who live by many waters, Abundant in treasures, Your end has come, The measure of your end. 14The Lord of armies has sworn by Himself: 'I will certainly fill you with a population like locusts, And they will cry out with shouts of victory over you.' 15 It is He who made the earth by His power, Who established the world by His wisdom, And by His understanding He stretched out the heavens. 16When He utters His voice, there is a roar of waters in the heavens, And He makes the clouds ascend from the end of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain And brings out wind from His storehouses.King James Version
Chapter 51
13O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness. 14The LORD of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers; and they shall lift up a shout against thee. 15He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding. 16When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 51
13You who reside by abundant water, rich in treasures, your end has come, your life thread is cut.New Living Translation
Chapter 51
13You are a city by a great river, a great center of commerce, but your end has come. The thread of your life is cut. 14The Lord of Heaven’s Armies has taken this vow and has sworn to it by his own name: 'Your cities will be filled with enemies, like fields swarming with locusts, and they will shout in triumph over you.'
15The Lord made the earth by his power, and he preserves it by his wisdom. With his own understanding he stretched out the heavens.
16When he speaks in the thunder, the heavens roar with rain. He causes the clouds to rise over the earth. He sends the lightning with the rain and releases the wind from his storehouses.

13O you who dwell by many waters, rich in treasures, your end has come; the thread of your life is cut. 14The LORD of hosts has sworn by himself: Surely I will fill you with men, as many as locusts, and they shall raise the shout of victory over you. 15“It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens. 16When he utters his voice there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain, and he brings forth the wind from his storehouses.New International Version
