Nehemia 9:11

9:11 You split the sea before them, and they crossed through ¹  the sea on dry ground! But you threw their pursuers ²  into the depths, like a stone into surging ³  waters.

Yeremia 51:63-64

51:63 When you finish reading this scroll aloud, tie a stone to it and throw it into the middle of the Euphrates River. ⁴  51:64 Then say, ‘In the same way Babylon will sink and never rise again because of the judgments ⁵  I am ready to bring upon her; they will grow faint.’”

The prophecies of Jeremiah end here. ⁶ 

Wahyu 18:21

18:21 Then ⁷  one powerful angel picked up a stone like a huge millstone, threw it into the sea, and said,

“With this kind of sudden violent force ⁸ 

Babylon the great city will be thrown down ⁹ 

and it will never be found again!

[9:11]  ¹ tn Heb “in the midst of.”

[9:11]  ² tn Heb “those who pursued them.”

[9:11]  ³ tn Heb “mighty.”

[51:63]  ⁴ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied for clarity.

[51:64]  ⁵ tn Or “disaster”; or “calamity.”

[51:64]  ⁶ sn The final chapter of the book of Jeremiah does not mention Jeremiah or record any of his prophecies.

[18:21]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[18:21]  ⁸ tn On ὅρμημα ({ormhma) BDAG 724 s.v. states, “violent rush, onset ὁρμήματι βληθήσεται Βαβυλών Babylon will be thrown down with violence Rv 18:21.” L&N 68.82 refers to the suddenness of the force or violence.

[18:21]  ⁹ sn Thrown down is a play on both the words and the action. The angel’s action with the stone illustrates the kind of sudden violent force with which the city will be overthrown.
