Jeremiah 51:47-51

Assuredly, the days are coming when I will punish the images of Babylon;her whole land shall be put to shame, and all her slain shall fall in her midst. Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is in them, shall shout for joy over Babylon; for the destroyers shall come against them out of the north, says the Lord. Babylon must fall for the slain of Israel, as the slain of all the earth have fallen because of Babylon.
You survivors of the sword, go, do not linger! Remember the Lord in a distant land, and let Jerusalem come into your mind: We are put to shame, for we have heard insults; dishonour has covered our face, for aliens have come into the holy places of the Lord’s house.
