Jeremiah 51:14
Compare all
12 aSet up the standard on the walls of Babylon;
Make the guard strong,
Set up the watchmen,
Prepare the ambushes.
For the Lord has both devised and done
What He spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon. 
13 aO you who dwell by many waters,
Abundant in treasures,
Your end has come,
The measure of your covetousness. 
14 aThe Lord of hosts has sworn by Himself:
“Surely I will fill you with men, bas with locusts,
And they shall lift cup a shout against you.” 
15 aHe has made the earth by His power;
He has established the world by His wisdom,
And bstretched out the heaven by His understanding. 
16 When He utters His voice—
There is a multitude of waters in the heavens:
a“He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
He makes lightnings for the rain;
He brings the wind out of His treasuries.”

Jeremiah 51:14

I will fill thee with men - By means of these very waters through the channel of thy boasted river, thou shalt be filled with men, suddenly appearing as an army of locusts; and, without being expected, shall lift up a terrific cry, as soon as they have risen from the channel of the river.
