51We are ashamed because we have heard rebuke; Disgrace has covered our faces, Because strangers have entered The holy places of the Lord’S house. 52'Therefore behold, the days are coming,' declares the Lord, 'When I will punish her idols, And the mortally wounded will groan throughout her land. 53Though Babylon ascends to the heavens, And though she fortifies her lofty stronghold, Destroyers will come from Me to her,' declares the Lord. 54The sound of an outcry from Babylon, And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!King James Version
