Jeremiah 51:52-54

EasyEnglish Bible

‘The time will soon come when I will punish Babylon's idols.
People everywhere in that land will cry with pain,
because their wounds are causing them to die.
⁵³ Babylon's people may build their city very high.
They may make its walls very strong.
But I will send an army to destroy it.’

⁵⁴ ‘Listen to the noise that comes from Babylon!
People are crying in pain.
Listen to the noise of the enemy army
as it destroys Babylonia.
