Jeremiah 51:55

For the Lord is ready to destroy Babylon, and put an end to her loud noise. Their waves ¹  will roar like turbulent ²  waters. They will make a deafening noise. ³ 

Ps 65:7; Ps 93:3,4; Isa 15:1; Isa 17:13; Isa 24:8-11; Isa 47:5; Jer 25:10; Jer 50:10-15; Jer 51:38,39; Eze 26:3; Lu 21:25; Re 17:15; Re 18:22,23

¹ tn The antecedent of the third masculine plural pronominal suffix is not entirely clear. It probably refers back to the “destroyers” mentioned in v. 53 as the agents of God’s judgment on Babylon.

² tn Or “mighty waters.”

³ tn Heb “and the noise of their sound will be given,”
