King James Version

Jeremiah 51:13-18 King James Version (KJV)

13. O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.

14. The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers; and they shall lift up a shout against thee.

15. He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.

16. When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.

17. Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

18. They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
