Jeremiah 51:39-42

39 But while they are aroused,
I will set out a feast for them
and make them drunk,
so that they shout with laughter—
then sleep forever and not awake,”
declares the Lord.

40 “I will bring them down
like lambs to the slaughter,
like rams and goats.

41 “How Sheshach will be captured,
the boast of the whole earth seized!
What a horror Babylon will be
among the nations!

42 The sea will rise over Babylon;
its roaring waves will cover her.
