Jeremiah 51:24-26

Revised Standard Version

The Doom of Babylon

²⁴“I will requite Babylon and all the inhabitants of Chalde′a before your very eyes for all the evil that they have done in Zion, says the Lord.

²⁵“Behold, I am against you, O destroying mountain,
                says the Lord,
    which destroys the whole earth;
I will stretch out my hand against you,
    and roll you down from the crags,
    and make you a burnt mountain.
²⁶No stone shall be taken from you for a corner
    and no stone for a foundation,
but you shall be a perpetual waste,
    says the Lord.
