Jeremiah 25:9 WBT

⁷  Yet ye have not hearkened to me, saith the LORD; that ye might provoke me to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt.

⁸  Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Because ye have not heard my words,

⁹  Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.

¹⁰  Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.

¹¹  And this whole land shall be a desolation, [and] an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
