Jeremiah 51:31-33
Lexham English Bible
31 one runner runs to meet another runner,
and one messenger to meet another messenger,
to tell the king of Babylon that his city has been captured,
from end to end.[a]
32 And the fords have been seized,
and the reed marshes have been burned with fire,
and the soldiers[b] are horrified.
33 For thus says Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel,
“The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor
at the time it is trodden down,
just a little while[c]
and the time of the harvest will come for her.”
