The Finality of Babylon’s Doom
21 Then a mighty angel(A) picked up a boulder the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea,(B) and said:
“With such violence
the great city(C) of Babylon will be thrown down,
never to be found again.
22 The music of harpists and musicians, pipers and trumpeters,
will never be heard in you again.(D)
No worker of any trade
will ever be found in you again.
The sound of a millstone
will never be heard in you again.(E)
23 The light of a lamp
will never shine in you again.
The voice of bridegroom and bride
will never be heard in you again.(F)
Your merchants were the world’s important people.(G)
By your magic spell(H) all the nations were led astray.
Jeremiah 51:62-64
New International Version
62 Then say, ‘Lord, you have said you will destroy this place, so that neither people nor animals will live in it; it will be desolate(A) forever.’ 63 When you finish reading this scroll, tie a stone to it and throw it into the Euphrates.(B) 64 Then say, ‘So will Babylon sink to rise no more(C) because of the disaster I will bring on her. And her people(D) will fall.’”(E)
The words of Jeremiah end(F) here.

Isaiah 34:10-15
New International Version
10 It will not be quenched(A) night or day;
its smoke will rise forever.(B)
From generation to generation(C) it will lie desolate;(D)
no one will ever pass through it again.
11 The desert owl[a](E) and screech owl[b] will possess it;
the great owl[c] and the raven(F) will nest there.
God will stretch out over Edom(G)
the measuring line of chaos(H)
and the plumb line(I) of desolation.
12 Her nobles will have nothing there to be called a kingdom,
all her princes(J) will vanish(K) away.
13 Thorns(L) will overrun her citadels,
nettles and brambles her strongholds.(M)
She will become a haunt for jackals,(N)
a home for owls.(O)
14 Desert creatures(P) will meet with hyenas,(Q)
and wild goats will bleat to each other;
there the night creatures(R) will also lie down
and find for themselves places of rest.
15 The owl will nest there and lay eggs,
she will hatch them, and care for her young
under the shadow of her wings;(S)
there also the falcons(T) will gather,
each with its mate.
