Gill's Notes on the Bible
The sea is come up upon Babylon,.... A vast army, comparable to the great sea for the multitude thereof, even the army of the Medes and Persians under Cyrus; so the Targum,
"a king with his armies, which are numerous like the waters of the sea, is come up against Babylon:''
she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof; being surrounded, besieged, surprised, and seized upon by the multitude of soldiers in that army, which poured in upon it unawares. Some think here is a beautiful antithesis, between the inundation of Cyrus's army and the draining of the river Euphrates, by which means he poured in his forces into Babylon.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
By a grand metaphor the invading army is compared to the sea.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 51:42. The sea is come up — A multitude of foes have inundated the city.
