Jeremiah 51:37-40 Modern English Version (MEV)

37. Babylon will become heaps,a dwelling place for jackals,an astonishment, and a hissing,without an inhabitant.

38. They will roar together like young lions;they will growl as lions’ whelps.

39. When they become heated up,I will make their feasts,and I will make them drunk,that they may rejoice,and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not awake,says the Lord.

40. I will bring them downlike lambs to the slaughter,like rams with male goats.
