Jeremiah 51:37-39

New American Standard Bible 1995

³⁷ “^(A)Babylon will become a heap of ruins, a haunt of jackals,
An ^(B)object of horror and hissing, without inhabitants.
³⁸ “They will roar together like ^(C)young lions,
They will growl like lions’ cubs.
³⁹ “When they become heated up, I will serve them their banquet
And ^(D)make them drunk, that they may become jubilant
And may ^(E)sleep a perpetual sleep
And not wake up,” declares the Lord.
