And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.

The verse 64 is found in chapter 51 of Jeremiah. The Jews are commanded to leave Babylon so as not to participate in its sin or perish with it. Seraiah must read the scroll and throw it into the Euphrates as a sign that Babylon will sink and not rise again. The final act turns the written prophecy into a visible symbol of the irreversibility of imperial judgment.

und sprich: also soll Babel versenkt werden und nicht wieder aufkommen von dem Unglück, das ich über sie bringen will, sondern vergehen. So weit hat Jeremia geredet.
Y dirás: Así será anegada Babilonia, y no se levantará del mal que yo traigo sobre ella; y serán rendidos. Hasta aquí son las palabras de Jeremías.
Y dirás: “Así se hundirá Babilonia y no volverá a levantarse, por la calamidad que yo traeré sobre ella; y quedarán agotados”». Hasta aquí las palabras de Jeremías.
et tu diras: Ainsi Babylone sera submergée, elle ne se relèvera pas des malheurs que j'amènerai sur elle; ils tomberont épuisés. Jusqu'ici sont les paroles de Jérémie.
Così sarà affondata Babilonia, e non risorgerà giammai, per lo male che io fo venir sopra lei; onde ogni forza mancherà loro. Fin qui sono le parole di Geremia
E dirás: Assim será afundada Babilônia, e não se levantará, por causa do mal que eu hei de trazer sobre ela; e eles se cansarão. Até aqui são as palavras de Jeremias.
說:『 巴比倫 因耶和華所要降與它的災禍,必如此沉下去,不再浮起來,百姓也必困乏。』」 耶利米 的話到此為止。
