Jeremiah 51:24-26
English Standard Version
24 (A)“I will repay Babylon and all the inhabitants of Chaldea before your very eyes for all the evil that they have done in Zion, declares the Lord.
25 “Behold, I am against you, O destroying mountain,
declares the Lord,
which destroys the whole earth;
I will stretch out my hand against you,
and roll you down from the crags,
(B)and make you a burnt mountain.
26 No (C)stone shall be taken from you for a corner
and no stone for a foundation,
but you shall be (D)a perpetual waste,
declares the Lord.
Jeremiah 51:24-26
New Living Translation
24 “I will repay Babylon
and the people of Babylonia[a]
for all the wrong they have done
to my people in Jerusalem,” says the Lord.
25 “Look, O mighty mountain, destroyer of the earth!
I am your enemy,” says the Lord.
“I will raise my fist against you,
to knock you down from the heights.
When I am finished,
you will be nothing but a heap of burnt rubble.
26 You will be desolate forever.
Even your stones will never again be used for building.
You will be completely wiped out,”
says the Lord.
