For the destroyer has come on her, even on Babylon. Her mighty men are taken. Their bows are broken in pieces, for the LORD is a God of retribution. He will surely repay.

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૫૧:૫૬
કેમ કે તેના પર એટલે બાબિલ પર વિનાશક આવી પહોંચ્યો છે. તેના યોદ્ધાઓ કેદ પકડાયા છે અને તેઓનાં ધનુષ્ય તોડી પડાયાં છે, કેમ કે યહોવાહ તો પ્રતિફળ આપનારા ઈશ્વર છે.; તે નિશ્ચે બદલો લેશે.
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह ५१:५६
बाबेल पर भी नाश करनेवाले चढ़ आए हैं, और उसके शूरवीर पकड़े गए हैं और उनके धनुष तोड़ डाले गए; क्योंकि यहोवा बदला देनेवाला परमेश्वर है, वह अवश्य ही बदला लेगा।

In context

54“The sound of a cry comes from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

55For the LORD lays Babylon waste, and destroys out of her the great voice! Their waves roar like many waters. The noise of their voice is uttered.

56For the destroyer has come on her, even on Babylon. Her mighty men are taken. Their bows are broken in pieces, for the LORD is a God of retribution. He will surely repay.

57I will make her princes, her wise men, her governors, her deputies, and her mighty men drunk. They will sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake up,” says the King, whose name is the LORD of Armies.

58The LORD of Armies says: “The wide walls of Babylon will be utterly overthrown. Her high gates will be burned with fire. The peoples will labor for vanity, and the nations for the fire; and they will be weary.”
