50The word that the LORD spoke concerning Babylon, concerning the land of the Chaldeans, by Jeremiah the prophet:H1697H3068H1696H894H776H3778H3027H3414H5030 2"Declare among the nations and proclaim, set up a banner and proclaim, conceal it not, and say: 'Babylon is taken, Bel is put to shame, Merodach is dismayed. Her images are put to shame, her idols are dismayed.'H5046H1471H8085H5375H5251H8085H3582H559H894H3920H1078H3001H4781H2865H6091H3001H1544H2865 3"For out of the north a nation has come up against her, which shall make her land a desolation, and none shall dwell in it; both man and beast shall flee away.H6828H5927H1471H7896H776H8047H3427H5110H1980H120H929 4"In those days and in that time, declares the LORD, the people of Israel and the people of Judah shall come together, weeping as they come, and they shall seek the LORD their God.H3117H6256H5002H3068H1121H3478H935H1121H3063H3162H1980H1058H3212H1245H3068H430 5They shall ask the way to Zion, with faces turned toward it, saying, 'Come, let us join ourselves to the LORD in an everlasting covenant that will never be forgotten.'H7592H1870H6726H6440H2008H935H3867H3068H5769H1285H7911 6"My people have been lost sheep. Their shepherds have led them astray, turning them away on the mountains. From mountain to hill they have gone. They have forgotten their fold.H5971H6H6629H7462H8582H7725H7726H2022H1980H2022H1389H7911H7258 7All who found them have devoured them, and their enemies have said, 'We are not guilty, for they have sinned against the LORD, their habitation of righteousness, the LORD, the hope of their fathers.'H4672H398H6862H559H816H2398H3068H5116H6664H3068H4723H1 8"Flee from the midst of Babylon, and go out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as male goats before the flock.H5110H8432H894H3318H3318H776H3778H6260H6440H6629 9For behold, I am stirring up and bringing against Babylon a gathering of great nations, from the north country. And they shall array themselves against her. From there she shall be taken. Their arrows are like a skilled warrior who does not return empty-handed.H5782H5927H894H6951H1419H1471H6828H776H6186H3920H2671H1368H7919H7921H7725H7387 10Chaldea shall be plundered; all who plunder her shall be sated, declares the LORD.H3778H7998H7997H7646H5002H3068 11"Though you rejoice, though you exult, O plunderers of my heritage, though you frolic like a heifer in the pasture, and neigh like stallions,H8055H5937H8154H5159H6335H5697H1877H1758H6670H47 12your mother shall be utterly shamed, and she who bore you shall be disgraced. Behold, she shall be the last of the nations, a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.H517H3966H954H3205H2659H319H1471H4057H6723H6160 13Because of the wrath of the LORD she shall not be inhabited but shall be an utter desolation; everyone who passes by Babylon shall be appalled, and hiss because of all her wounds.H7110H3068H3427H8077H5674H894H8074H8319H4347 14Set yourselves in array against Babylon all around, all you who bend the bow; shoot at her, spare no arrows, for she has sinned against the LORD.H6186H894H5439H1869H7198H3034H2550H2671H2398H3068 15Raise a shout against her all around; she has surrendered; her bulwarks have fallen; her walls are thrown down. For this is the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance on her; do to her as she has done.H7321H5439H5414H3027H803H5307H2346H2040H5360H3068H5358H6213H6213 16Cut off from Babylon the sower, and the one who handles the sickle in time of harvest; because of the sword of the oppressor, every one shall turn to his own people, and every one shall flee to his own land.H3772H2232H894H8610H4038H6256H7105H6440H3238H2719H6437H376H5971H5127H376H776 17"Israel is a hunted sheep driven away by lions. First the king of Assyria devoured him, and now at last Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has gnawed his bones.H3478H6340H7716H738H5080H7223H4428H804H398H314H5019H4428H894H6105 18Therefore, thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing punishment on the king of Babylon and his land, as I punished the king of Assyria.H559H3068H6635H430H3478H6485H4428H894H776H6485H4428H804 19I will restore Israel to his pasture, and he shall feed on Carmel and in Bashan, and his desire shall be satisfied on the hills of Ephraim and in Gilead.H7725H3478H7725H5116H7462H3760H1316H5315H7646H2022H669H1568 20In those days and in that time, declares the LORD, iniquity shall be sought in Israel, and there shall be none, and sin in Judah, and none shall be found, for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant.H3117H6256H5002H3068H5771H3478H1245H2403H3063H4672H5545H7604 21"Go up against the land of Merathaim, and against the inhabitants of Pekod. Kill, and devote them to destruction, declares the LORD, and do all that I have commanded you.H5927H776H4850H3427H6489H2717H2763H310H5002H3068H6213H6680 22The noise of battle is in the land, and great destruction!H6963H4421H776H1419H7667 23How the hammer of the whole earth is cut down and broken! How Babylon has become a horror among the nations!H6360H776H1438H7665H894H8047H1471 24I set a snare for you and you were taken, O Babylon, and you did not know it; you were found and caught, because you opposed the LORD.H3369H3920H894H3045H4672H8610H1624H3068 25The LORD has opened his armory and brought out the weapons of his wrath, for the Lord GOD of hosts has a work to do in the land of the Chaldeans.H3068H6605H214H3318H3627H2195H4399H136H3069H6635H776H3778 26Come against her from every quarter; open her granaries; pile her up like heaps of grain, and devote her to destruction; let nothing be left of her.H935H7093H6605H3965H5549H6194H2763H7611 27Kill all her bulls; let them go down to the slaughter. Woe to them, for their day has come, the time of their punishment.H2717H6499H3381H2874H1945H3117H935H6256H6486 28"A voice! They flee and escape from the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, vengeance for his temple.H6963H5127H6405H776H894H5046H6726H5360H3068H430H5360H1964 29"Summon archers against Babylon, all those who bend the bow. Encamp around her; let no one escape. Repay her according to her deeds; do to her according to all that she has done. For she has proudly defied the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.H8085H7228H894H1869H7198H2583H5439H6413H7999H6467H6213H6213H2102H3068H6918H3478 30Therefore her young men shall fall in her squares, and all her soldiers shall be destroyed on that day, declares the LORD.H970H5307H7339H582H4421H1826H3117H5002H3068 31"Behold, I am against you, O proud one, declares the Lord GOD of hosts, for your day has come, the time when I will punish you.H2087H5002H136H3069H6635H3117H935H6256H6485 32The proud one shall stumble and fall, with none to raise him up, and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it will devour all that is around him.H2087H3782H5307H6965H3341H784H5892H398H5439 33"Thus says the LORD of hosts: The people of Israel are oppressed, and the people of Judah with them. All who took them captive have held them fast; they refuse to let them go.H559H3068H6635H1121H3478H1121H3063H6231H3162H7617H2388H3985H7971 34Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name. He will surely plead their cause, that he may give rest to the earth, but unrest to the inhabitants of Babylon.H1350H2389H3068H6635H8034H7378H7378H7379H7280H776H7264H3427H894 35"A sword against the Chaldeans, declares the LORD, and against the inhabitants of Babylon, and against her officials and her wise men!H2719H3778H5002H3068H3427H894H8269H2450 36A sword against the diviners, that they may become fools! A sword against her warriors, that they may be destroyed!H2719H907H2973H2719H1368H2865 37A sword against her horses and against her chariots, and against all the foreign troops in her midst, that they may become women! A sword against all her treasures, that they may be plundered!H2719H5483H7393H6153H8432H802H2719H214H962 38A drought against her waters, that they may be dried up! For it is a land of images, and they are mad over idols.H2721H4325H3001H776H6456H1984H367 39"Therefore wild beasts shall dwell with hyenas in Babylon, and ostriches shall dwell in her. She shall never again have people, nor be inhabited for all generations.H6728H338H3427H1323H3284H3427H3427H5331H7931H1755H1755 40As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring cities, declares the LORD, so no man shall dwell there, and no son of man shall sojourn in her.H430H4114H5467H6017H7934H5002H3068H376H3427H1121H120H1481 41"Behold, a people comes from the north; a mighty nation and many kings are stirring from the farthest parts of the earth.H5971H935H6828H1419H1471H7227H4428H5782H3411H776 42They lay hold of bow and spear; they are cruel and have no mercy. The sound of them is like the roaring of the sea; they ride on horses, arrayed as a man for battle against you, O daughter of Babylon!H2388H7198H3591H394H7355H6963H1993H3220H7392H5483H6186H376H4421H1323H894 43"The king of Babylon heard the report of them, and his hands fell helpless; anguish seized him, pain as of a woman in labor.H4428H894H8085H8088H3027H7503H6869H2388H2427H3205 44"Behold, like a lion coming up from the thicket of the Jordan against a perennial pasture, I will suddenly make them run away from her, and I will appoint over her whomever I choose. For who is like me? Who will summon me? What shepherd can stand before me?H5927H738H1347H3383H5116H386H7323H7280H7323H7323H977H6485H3259H7462H5975H6440 45Therefore hear the plan that the LORD has made against Babylon, and the purposes that he has formed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the little ones of their flock shall be dragged away; surely their fold shall be appalled at their fate.H8085H6098H3068H3289H894H4284H2803H776H3778H6810H6629H5498H5116H8074 46At the sound of the capture of Babylon the earth shall tremble, and her cry shall be heard among the nations."H6963H8610H894H776H7493H2201H8085H1471
