18:17 because in a single hour such great wealth has been destroyed!”
And every ship’s captain,
“Woe, Woe, O great city –
in which all those who had ships on the sea got rich from her wealth –
because in a single hour she has been destroyed!”
51:8 But suddenly Babylonia will fall and be destroyed.
Cry out in mourning over it!
Get medicine for her wounds!
Perhaps she can be healed!
51:9 Foreigners living there will say,
‘We tried to heal her, but she could not be healed.
Let’s leave Babylonia
For judgment on her will be vast in its proportions.
It will be like it is piled up to heaven, stacked up into the clouds.’
