Jeremiah 51:14-16

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁴The Lord All-Powerful used his name to make this promise:
“Babylon, I will fill you with so many enemy soldiers they will be like a cloud of locusts.
They will win their war against you.
They will stand over you shouting their victory cry.”

¹⁵God used his great power and made the earth.
    He used his wisdom to build the world
    and his understanding to stretch out the skies.
¹⁶When he thunders, the waters in the skies roar.
    He sends clouds all over the earth.
He sends lightning with the rain.
    He brings out the wind from his storehouses.
