Jeremiah 50:11-13
New King James Version
11 “Because(A) you were glad, because you rejoiced,
You destroyers of My heritage,
Because you have grown fat (B)like a heifer threshing grain,
And you [a]bellow like bulls,
12 Your mother shall be deeply ashamed;
She who bore you shall be ashamed.
Behold, the least of the nations shall be a (C)wilderness,
A dry land and a desert.
13 Because of the wrath of the Lord
She shall not be inhabited,
(D)But she shall be wholly desolate.
(E)Everyone who goes by Babylon shall be horrified
And hiss at all her plagues.

Authorized (King James) Version
11 Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of mine heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass, and bellow as bulls; 12 your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert. 13 Because of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.

Jeremiah 50:11-13
New International Version
11 “Because you rejoice and are glad,
you who pillage my inheritance,(A)
because you frolic like a heifer(B) threshing grain
and neigh like stallions,
12 your mother will be greatly ashamed;
she who gave you birth will be disgraced.(C)
She will be the least of the nations—
a wilderness, a dry land, a desert.(D)
13 Because of the Lord’s anger she will not be inhabited
but will be completely desolate.(E)
All who pass Babylon will be appalled;(F)
they will scoff(G) because of all her wounds.(H)
