25“Babylonia, I am against you.

Your kingdom is like a destroying mountain.

You have destroyed the whole earth,”

announces the Lord.

“I will reach out my hand against you.

I will roll you off the cliffs.

I will make you like a mountain that has been burned up.

26No rock will be taken from you to be used

as the most important stone for a building.

No stones will be taken from you

to be used for a foundation.

Your land will be empty forever,”

announces the Lord.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

“Behold, I am against you, O destroying mountain,

declares the Lord,

which destroys the whole earth;

I will stretch out my hand against you,

and roll you down from the crags,

and make you a burnt mountain.

No stone shall be taken from you for a corner

and no stone for a foundation,

but you shall be a perpetual waste,

declares the Lord.

you who destroy the whole earth,”

declares the Lord.

“I will stretch out my hand against you,

roll you off the cliffs,

and make you a burned-out mountain.

No rock will be taken from you for a cornerstone,

nor any stone for a foundation,

for you will be desolate forever,”

declares the Lord.

Look, I am against you, devastating mountain.

This is the Lord’s declaration.

You devastate the whole earth.

I will stretch out my hand against you,

roll you down from the cliffs,

and turn you into a charred mountain.

No one will be able to retrieve a cornerstone

or a foundation stone from you,

because you will become desolate forever.

This is the Lord’s declaration.

NLTNew Living Translation

“Look, O mighty mountain, destroyer of the earth!

I am your enemy,” says the Lord.

“I will raise my fist against you,

to knock you down from the heights.

When I am finished,

you will be nothing but a heap of burnt rubble.

You will be desolate forever.

Even your stones will never again be used for building.

You will be completely wiped out,”

says the Lord.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“Look, I am against you,

O mountain of the destruction,” declares Yahweh,

“the one that destroys the whole earth.

And I will stretch out my hand against you,

and I will roll you down from the cliffs,

and I will make you as a mountain burned away.

They will not take from you

a stone for a corner,

and a stone for a foundation,

for you will be an everlasting desolation,” declares Yahweh.

KJV 1900King James Version

Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the Lord,

Which destroyest all the earth:

And I will stretch out mine hand upon thee,

And roll thee down from the rocks,

And will make thee a burnt mountain.

And they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner,

Nor a stone for foundations;

But thou shalt be desolate for ever, saith the Lord.
