Jeremiah 51:39 - Robertson's Book Notes (NT)

Jeremiah 51:39

37 ^aBabylon shall become a heap,
A dwelling place for jackals,
^bAn astonishment and a hissing,
Without an inhabitant.

38 They shall roar together like lions,
They shall growl like lions’ whelps.

39 In their excitement I will prepare their feasts;
^aI will make them drunk,
That they may rejoice,
And sleep a perpetual sleep
And not awake,” says the Lord.

40 “I will bring them down
Like lambs to the slaughter,
Like rams with male goats.

41 “Oh, how ^aSheshach is taken!
Oh, how ^bthe praise of the whole earth is seized!
How Babylon has become desolate among the nations!

42 ^aThe sea has come up over Babylon;
She is covered with the multitude of its waves.
