UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) See

(Some words not found in UHB: thus he/it_had_said YHWH behold,I stir_up on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Babel and=near/to inhabitants לֵב קָמָי spirit destroyer )

This draws attention to what is said next. Alternate translation: “Listen carefully” or “Pay attention”

(Occurrence 0) a wind of destruction

(Some words not found in UHB: thus he/it_had_said YHWH behold,I stir_up on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Babel and=near/to inhabitants לֵב קָמָי spirit destroyer )

This could mean: (1) “a wind that destroys” or (2) “the spirit of a destroyer.” This would mean that Yahweh would cause or inspire the enemy army to go and attack Babylon.

(Occurrence 0) Leb Kamai

(Some words not found in UHB: thus he/it_had_said YHWH behold,I stir_up on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Babel and=near/to inhabitants לֵב קָמָי spirit destroyer )

This is code name for Chaldea, a region of Babylonia. It is not clear why Jeremiah uses this name here, so you may want to translate as “Chaldea” or “Babylonia.”
