Jeremiah 51:62-64

LEB(i) 62 And you must say, 'Yahweh, you yourself spoke against this place, to destroy it, so that there will not be in it anything living, from humankind to animals,* for it will be an everlasting desolation.'* 63 And then* when you finish reading aloud this scroll, you must tie a stone on it, and you must throw it into the middle of the Euphrates. 64 And you must say, 'Babylon will sink, and she will not rise, because of* the face of the disasters* that I am bringing on her, and they will grow weary.'" Thus far* the words of Jeremiah.
