  • Isa 13:15-18 : 15 Everyone who is found will be thrust through; and everyone who is joined to them will fall by the sword. 16 Their children also will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be plundered, and their wives ravished. 17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who will not regard silver; and as for gold, they will not delight in it. 18 Their bows will dash the young men to pieces; and they will have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye will not spare children.
  • Isa 47:10-15 : 10 For you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, 'No one sees me.' Your wisdom and your knowledge have perverted you; and you have said in your heart, 'I am, and there is none else besides me.' 11 Therefore evil shall come upon you; you shall not know from where it rises. Trouble shall fall upon you; you shall not be able to put it off. Desolation shall come upon you suddenly, which you shall not know. 12 Stand now with your enchantments and with the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth. Perhaps you will be able to profit, perhaps you may prevail. 13 You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators stand up and save you from these things that shall come upon you. 14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them. They shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame; there shall not be a coal to warm by, nor a fire to sit before. 15 Thus shall they be to you with whom you have labored, your merchants from your youth; they shall wander each one to his own quarter; none shall save you.

  • Jer 51:35-58 : 35 The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say. 36 Therefore thus says the LORD: Behold, I will plead your cause, and take vengeance for you; and I will dry up her sea and make her springs dry. 37 Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and a hissing, without an inhabitant. 38 They shall roar together like lions; they shall growl like lions' cubs. 39 In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, says the LORD. 40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with goats. 41 How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how has Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! 42 The sea has come up upon Babylon; she is covered with the multitude of its waves. 43 Her cities are a desolation, a dry land and a wilderness, a land where no one dwells, nor does any son of man pass by. 44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth what he has swallowed; and the nations shall no longer gather to him; indeed, the wall of Babylon shall fall. 45 My people, go out of her midst, and deliver every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD. 46 And do not let your heart faint, nor fear for the rumor that shall be heard in the land; a rumor shall both come one year, and after that in another year a rumor shall come, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler. 47 Therefore behold, the days come that I will execute judgment upon the graven images of Babylon; her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in her midst. 48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is in them, shall sing for Babylon; for the destroyers shall come to her from the north, says the LORD. 49 As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth. 50 You who have escaped the sword, go away, do not stand still; remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind. 51 We are ashamed, because we have heard reproach; shame has covered our faces; for strangers have come into the sanctuaries of the LORD's house. 52 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will execute judgment upon her graven images; and through all her land the wounded shall groan. 53 Though Babylon should ascend to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from Me shall destroyers come to her, says the LORD. 54 A sound of a cry comes from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans; 55 Because the LORD has plundered Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves roar like great waters, a noise is uttered. 56 Because the destroyer has come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken; for the LORD God of recompenses shall surely repay. 57 I will make her princes, wise men, captains, rulers, and mighty men drunk, and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts. 58 Thus says the LORD of hosts: The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; the people shall labor in vain, and the folk shall be weary.

  • Rev 17:16-17 : 16 The ten horns which you saw on the beast will hate the prostitute, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. 17 For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill his purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled.

These two were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with sulfur. 21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him who sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
