37. And Babylon will become a tumult, the habitation of dragons, an astonishment, and a hissing, because there is no inhabitant.
38. They will roar together, like lions, they will shake their manes, like young lions.
39. In their heat, I will give them a drink, and I will inebriate them, so that they become drowsy, and sleep an everlasting sleep, and do not rise up, says the Lord.
40. I will lead them away, like lambs to the slaughter, and like rams with young goats.
41. How was Sesac captured, and how was the renowned one of all the earth seized? How has Babylon become an astonishment among the nations?
