Jeremiah 50:11-13
Legacy Standard Bible
11 “Because you are glad, because you exult,
O you who (A)plunder My inheritance,
Because you skip about [a]like a threshing (B)heifer
And neigh like [b]valiant steeds,
12 Your (C)mother [c]will be greatly ashamed;
She who gave you birth [d]will be humiliated.
Behold, she will be the least of the nations,
A (D)wilderness, a parched land, and a desert.
13 Because of the wrath of Yahweh she will (E)not be inhabited,
But she will be (F)completely desolate;
Everyone who passes by Babylon (G)will be in desolation
And will hiss because of all her wounds.

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.
