Jeremiah 51:30-32
Lexham English Bible
30 The warriors of Babylon have ceased to fight,
they remain in the strongholds,
their power has dried up,
they have become as women.
Her dwelling places are set on fire,
her bars are broken.
31 one runner runs to meet another runner,
and one messenger to meet another messenger,
to tell the king of Babylon that his city has been captured,
from end to end.[a]
32 And the fords have been seized,
and the reed marshes have been burned with fire,
and the soldiers[b] are horrified.

New International Version
30 Babylon’s warriors(A) have stopped fighting;
they remain in their strongholds.
Their strength is exhausted;
they have become weaklings.(B)
Her dwellings are set on fire;(C)
the bars(D) of her gates are broken.
31 One courier(E) follows another
and messenger follows messenger
to announce to the king of Babylon
that his entire city is captured,(F)
32 the river crossings seized,
the marshes set on fire,(G)
and the soldiers terrified.(H)”
