Jeremiah 51:28

A Message Concerning Babylon

²⁷ Lift up a signal in the land,
Blow a trumpet among the nations!
Consecrate the nations against her,
Summon against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni and Ashkenaz;
Appoint a marshal against her,
Bring up the horses like bristly locusts.
²⁸ Consecrate the nations against her,
The kings of the Medes,
Their governors and all their prefects,
And every land of their dominion.
²⁹ So the land quakes and writhes,
For the purposes of the Lord against Babylon stand,
To make the land of Babylon
A desolation without inhabitants.
