Jeremiah 51:33

כִּי֩ כֹ֨ה אָמַ֜ר יְהוָ֤ה צְבָאֹות֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל בַּת־בָּבֶ֕ל כְּגֹ֖רֶן עֵ֣ת הִדְרִיכָ֑הּ עֹ֣וד מְעַ֔ט וּבָ֥אָה עֵֽת־הַקָּצִ֖יר לָֽהּ׃

For thus says YHWH of Hosts, the God of Yisraʾel: “The daughter of Bavel is like a threshing floor at the time it is trodden; yet a little while and the time of harvest will come for her.”
