Jeremiah

³⁴Their Redeemer is strong:the Lord of Hosts is his name.He will thoroughly plead their cause,that he may give rest to the earth,and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon. ³⁵“A sword is on the Kasdim,” says the Lord,“and on the inhabitants of Babylon,on her princes,and on her wise men. ³⁶A sword is on the boasters,and they will become fools.A sword is on her mighty men,and they will be dismayed. ³⁷A sword is on their horses,on their chariots,and on all the mixed people who are in the middle of her;and they will become as women.A sword is on her treasures,and they will be robbed. ³⁸A drought is on her waters,and they will be dried up;for it is a land of engraved images,and they are mad over idols. ³⁹Therefore the wild animals of the desertwith the wolves will dwell there.The ostriches will dwell therein;and it will be inhabited no more forever;neither will it be lived in from generation to generation. ⁴⁰As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and its neighbor cities,” says the Lord,“so no man will dwell there,neither will any son of man live therein.
