The verse 18 is found in chapter 50 of Jeremiah. Babylon, the instrument previously used to discipline Judah, now receives a lengthy oracle of judgment. Israel and Judah will be sought and will return together to Zion, while Babylon’s sins lead to its downfall. The reversal is central: the empire that appeared permanent becomes an object of judgment.

Darum spricht der HERR Zebaoth, der Gott Israels, also: Siehe, ich will den König zu Babel heimsuchen und sein Land, gleichwie ich den König von Assyrien heimgesucht habe.
Por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel: He aquí que yo visito al rey de Babilonia y a su tierra como visité al rey de Asiria.
Por eso, así dice Jehová de los ejércitos, el Dios de Israel: Voy a castigar al rey de Babilonia y a su tierra, como castigué al rey de Asiria.
C'est pourquoi ainsi parle l'Eternel des armées, le Dieu d'Israël: Voici, je châtierai le roi de Babylone et son pays, Comme j'ai châtié le roi d'Assyrie.
Perciò, il Signor degli eserciti, l’Iddio d’Israele, ha detto così: Ecco, io farò punizione del re di Babilonia, e del suo paese, siccome ho fatta punizione del re di Assiria.
Portanto, assim diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos, Deus de Israel: Eis que castigarei o rei de Babilônia, e a sua terra, como castiguei o rei da Assíria.
所以萬軍之耶和華- 以色列 的上帝如此說:「看哪,我必懲罰 巴比倫 王和他的地,像我從前懲罰 亞述 王一樣。
