Jeremiah 51:39 in Context — Jeremiah 51

37 Y será Babilonia para montones, morada de chacales, espanto y silbo, sin morador.

38 A una rugirán como leones; como cachorros de leones bramarán.

39 En su calor les pondré sus banquetes; y haréles que se embriaguen, para que se alegren, y duerman eterno sueño, y no despierten, dice Jehová.

40 Hacerlos he traer como corderos al matadero, como carneros con cabritos.

41 ¡Cómo fué presa Sesach, y fué tomada la que era alabada por toda la tierra! ¡Cómo fué Babilonia por espanto entre las gentes!
