Jeremiah 50:21-27 - The Invasion Of Babylon
21 Against the land of Merathaim, go thou up against her, And against the inhabitants of Pekod, - Lay waste and devote to destruction after them Declareth Yahweh, And do according to all which I have commanded thee. 22 The sound of battle is in the earth, - And a great destruction. 23 How s cut and broken the hammer of all the earth! How hath Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! 24 I laid a snare for thee yea and thou wast captured O Babylon, when, thou wast not aware, - Thou wast found out yea and taken, For with Yahweh, hadst thou contended. 25 Yahweh opened his armoury, and brought out his weapons of indignation, - For, a work, it is pertaining to My Lord, Yahweh of hosts, in the land of the Chaldeans, 26 Come ye against her from farthest parts, Throw open her granaries, Cast her up as heaps, and devote her to destruction, - Do not let her have a remnant. 27 Cut up all her bullocks, Let them go down to the slaughter, - Alas for them! For their day, hath come, Their time for punishment.
