- 這是行毀滅的臨到巴比倫.巴比倫的勇士被捉住.他們的弓折斷了.因為耶和華是施行報應的 神、必定施行報應。
- 君王、名為萬軍之耶和華的、說、我必使巴比倫的首領、智慧人、省長、副省長、和勇士、都沉醉、使他們睡了長覺、永不醒起。
- 萬軍之耶和華如此說、巴比倫寬闊的城牆、必全然傾倒、他高大的城門、必被火焚燒.眾民所勞碌的必致虛空、列國所勞碌的被火焚燒.他們都必困乏。
- 猶大王西底家在位第四年、上巴比倫去的時候、瑪西雅的孫子尼利亞的兒子西萊雅與王同去.(西萊雅是王宮的大臣)先知耶利米有話吩咐他。
- 耶利米將一切要臨到巴比倫的災禍、就是論到巴比倫的一切話、寫在書上。

- For the destroyer is coming against her, against Babylon, And her mighty men will be captured, Their bows are shattered; For the LORD is a God of recompense, He will fully repay.
- "I will make her princes and her wise men drunk, Her governors, her prefects and her mighty men, That they may sleep a perpetual sleep and not wake up," Declares the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
- Thus says the LORD of hosts, "The broad wall of Babylon will be completely razed And her high gates will be set on fire; So the peoples will toil for nothing, And the nations become exhausted only for fire."
- The message which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the grandson of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah to Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. (Now Seraiah was quartermaster.)
- So Jeremiah wrote in a single scroll all the calamity which would come upon Babylon, that is, all these words which have been written concerning Babylon.
