Jeremiah 25:10-12 English Standard Version (ESV)

10. Moreover, I will banish from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the grinding of the millstones and the light of the lamp.

11. This whole land shall become a ruin and a waste, and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

12. Then after seventy years are completed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their iniquity, declares the Lord, making the land an everlasting waste.
