Jeremiah 25:12

25:12 “ ‘But when the seventy years are over, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation31 for their sins. I will make the land of Babylon32 an everlasting ruin.33 I, the Lord, affirm it!34

31	tn Heb “that nation.”
32	tn Heb “the land of the Chaldeans.” See the study note on 21:4 for the use of the term “Chaldeans.”
33	tn Heb “I will visit upon the king of Babylon and upon that nation, oracle of the Lord, their iniquity even upon the land of the Chaldeans and I will make it everlasting ruins.” The sentence has been restructured to avoid ambiguity and to conform the style more to contemporary English. sn Compare Isa 13:19–22 and Jer 50:39–40.
