For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.

Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground.

Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.

And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.

For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
