Jeremiah 51:56-58
Authorized (King James) Version
56 because the spoiler is come upon her,
even upon Babylon,
and her mighty men are taken,
every one of their bows is broken:
for the Lord God of recompences shall surely requite.
57 And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men,
her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men:
and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake,
saith the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
58 Thus saith the Lord of hosts;
The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken,
and her high gates shall be burned with fire;
and the people shall labour in vain,
and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.
Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
