37. And Babylon will become as a heap of stones, a lair of jackals, an object of horror, and an object of hissing, without inhabitants.
38. They will roar together like the young lions, they will growl like the cubs of lions.
39. At their becoming hot I will set their banquets, and I will make them drunk, so that they will fall into a swoon, and they will sleep an everlasting sleep, and they will not wake up,” declares Yahweh.
40. “I will bring them down like young rams to slaughter, like rams and goats.
41. How Sheshach is captured, and the glory of all the earth is seized! How Babylon has become as an object of horror among the nations!
42. The sea has risen over Babylon, she has been covered by the roar of its waves.
