Jeremiah 25:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 (A)Moreover I will [a]take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the noise of the [b]millstones, and the light of the candle.
11 And this whole land shall be desolate, and an astonishment, and these nations shall serve the king of Babel seventy years.
12 And when the [c]seventy years are accomplished, I will visit [d]the king of Babel and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquities, even the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it a perpetual desolation.
