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.

Revised Standard Version
11 “Though you rejoice, though you exult,
O plunderers of my heritage,
though you are wanton as a heifer at grass,
and neigh like stallions,
12 your mother shall be utterly shamed,
and she who bore you shall be disgraced.
Lo, she shall be the last of the nations,
a wilderness dry and desert.
13 Because of the wrath of the Lord she shall not be inhabited,
but shall be an utter desolation;
every one who passes by Babylon shall be appalled,
and hiss because of all her wounds.
