Jeremiah 51:12-14

New American Standard Bible 1995

^12 (A)Lift up a ^[a]signal against the walls of Babylon;
Post a strong guard,
Station ^[b]sentries,
Place men in ambush!
For the Lord has both ^(B)purposed and performed
What He spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
¹³ O you who ^(C)dwell by many waters,
Abundant in ^(D)treasures,
Your end has come,
The ^[c]measure of your ^[d](E)end.
¹⁴ The ^(F)Lord of hosts has sworn by Himself:
“Surely I will fill you with a ^[e]population like ^(G)locusts,
And they will cry out with ^[f]shouts of victory over you.”
