So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, [even] all these words that are written against Babylon (51:60) And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou comest to Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words; (51:61) Then shalt thou say, O Lord, thou hast spoken against this place, to cut it off, that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever (51:62) And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, [that] thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates: (51:63) And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far [are] the words of Jeremiah
(51:64)
