Jeremiah 51:37-39

International Standard Version

³⁷ Babylon will become a heap of ruins,
    a refuge for jackals,
a desolate place
    and an object of scorn.^[a]
38 They’ll roar together like young lions;
    they’ll growl like lion cubs.
³⁹ When they’re excited^[b] I’ll serve them their banquet,
    and make them drunk until they’re merry.
They’ll sleep forever and won’t wake up,”
    declares the Lord.
