61 And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, “When you get to Babylon, see that you read all these words aloud,

62 and say, ‘O LORD, You have promised to cut off this place so that no one will remain—neither man nor beast. Indeed, it will be desolate forever.’

63 When you finish reading this scroll, tie a stone to it and cast it into the Euphrates.
