1 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up against me, a destroying wind;

2 And will send unto Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.

3 Against him that bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine: and spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.

4 Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streets.

5 For Israel hath not been forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of the LORD of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.

6 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.

7 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the LORD'S hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.

8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.

9 We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.

10 The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.

11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.

12 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.

13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.

14 The LORD of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers; and they shall lift up a shout against thee.

15 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.

16 When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.

17 Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

18 They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

19 The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name.

20 Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms;

21 And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider;

22 With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid;

23 I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers.

24 And I will render unto Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith the LORD.

25 Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the LORD, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.

26 And they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but thou shalt be desolate for ever, saith the LORD.

27 Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillers.

28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.

29 And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.

30 The mighty men of Babylon have forborn to fight, they have remained in their holds: their might hath failed; they became as women: they have burned her dwellingplaces; her bars are broken.

31 One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to shew the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end,

32 And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.

33 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a threshingfloor, it is time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.

34 Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.

35 The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.

36 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.

37 And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.

38 They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps.

39 In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.

40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats.

41 How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!

42 The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.

43 Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.

44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.

45 My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD.

46 And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumour, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.

47 Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.

48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come unto her from the north, saith the LORD.

49 As Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.

50 Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.

51 We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the LORD'S house.

52 Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.

53 Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come unto her, saith the LORD.

54 A sound of a cry cometh from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:

55 Because the LORD hath spoiled Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves do roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered:

56 Because the spoiler is come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for the LORD God of recompences shall surely requite.

57 And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.

58 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.

59 The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah into Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And this Seraiah was a quiet prince.

60 So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written against Babylon.

61 And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou comest to Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words;

62 Then shalt thou say, O LORD, thou hast spoken against this place, to cut it off, that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever.

63 And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, that thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates:

64 And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.

1 Thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 the LORD; ^H3068 Behold, ^H2009 I will raise up ^H5782 against ^H5921 Babylon, ^H894 and against ^H413 them that dwell ^H3427 in the midst ^H3820 of them that rise up ^H6965 against me , a destroying ^H7843 wind; ^H7307

2 And will send ^H7971 unto Babylon ^H894 fanners, ^H2114 that shall fan ^H2219 her , and shall empty ^H1238 ^H853 her land: ^H776 for ^H3588 in the day ^H3117 of trouble ^H7451 they shall be ^H1961 against ^H5921 her round about ^H4480 ^H5439 .

3 Against ^H413 him that bendeth ^H1869 let the archer ^H1869 bend ^H1869 his bow, ^H7198 and against ^H413 him that lifteth himself up ^H5927 in his brigandine: ^H5630 and spare ^H2550 ye not ^H408 her young men; ^H970 destroy ye utterly ^H2763 all ^H3605 her host. ^H6635

4 Thus the slain ^H2491 shall fall ^H5307 in the land ^H776 of the Chaldeans, ^H3778 and they that are thrust through ^H1856 in her streets. ^H2351

5 For ^H3588 Israel ^H3478 hath not ^H3808 been forsaken, ^H488 nor Judah ^H3063 of his God ^H4480 ^H430 , of the LORD ^H4480 ^H3068 of hosts; ^H6635 though ^H3588 their land ^H776 was filled ^H4390 with sin ^H817 against the Holy One ^H4480 ^H6918 of Israel. ^H3478

6 Flee ^H5127 out of the midst ^H4480 ^H8432 of Babylon, ^H894 and deliver ^H4422 every man ^H376 his soul: ^H5315 be not ^H408 cut off ^H1826 in her iniquity; ^H5771 for ^H3588 this ^H1931 is the time ^H6256 of the LORD's ^H3068 vengeance; ^H5360 he will render ^H7999 unto her a recompense. ^H1576

7 Babylon ^H894 hath been a golden ^H2091 cup ^H3563 in the LORD's ^H3068 hand, ^H3027 that made all ^H3605 the earth ^H776 drunken: ^H7937 the nations ^H1471 have drunken ^H8354 of her wine ^H4480 ^H3196 ; therefore ^H5921 ^H3651 the nations ^H1471 are mad. ^H1984

8 Babylon ^H894 is suddenly ^H6597 fallen ^H5307 and destroyed: ^H7665 howl ^H3213 for ^H5921 her; take ^H3947 balm ^H6875 for her pain, ^H4341 if so be ^H194 she may be healed. ^H7495

9 We would have healed ^H7495 ^H853 Babylon, ^H894 but she is not ^H3808 healed: ^H7495 forsake ^H5800 her , and let us go ^H1980 every one ^H376 into his own country: ^H776 for ^H3588 her judgment ^H4941 reacheth ^H5060 unto ^H413 heaven, ^H8064 and is lifted up ^H5375 even to ^H5704 the skies. ^H7834

10 The LORD ^H3068 hath brought forth ^H3318 ^H853 our righteousness: ^H6666 come, ^H935 and let us declare ^H5608 in Zion ^H6726 ^H853 the work ^H4639 of the LORD ^H3068 our God. ^H430

11 Make bright ^H1305 the arrows; ^H2671 gather ^H4390 the shields: ^H7982 the LORD ^H3068 hath raised up ^H5782 ^H853 the spirit ^H7307 of the kings ^H4428 of the Medes: ^H4074 for ^H3588 his device ^H4209 is against ^H5921 Babylon, ^H894 to destroy ^H7843 it; because ^H3588 it ^H1931 is the vengeance ^H5360 of the LORD, ^H3068 the vengeance ^H5360 of his temple. ^H1964

12 Set up ^H5375 the standard ^H5251 upon ^H413 the walls ^H2346 of Babylon, ^H894 make the watch ^H4929 strong, ^H2388 set up ^H6965 the watchmen, ^H8104 prepare ^H3559 the ambushes: ^H693 for ^H3588 the LORD ^H3068 hath both ^H1571 devised ^H2161 and ^H1571 done ^H6213 ^H853 that which ^H834 he spoke ^H1696 against ^H413 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Babylon. ^H894

13 O thou that dwellest ^H7931 upon ^H5921 many ^H7227 waters, ^H4325 abundant ^H7227 in treasures, ^H214 thine end ^H7093 is come, ^H935 and the measure ^H520 of thy covetousness. ^H1215

14 The LORD ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 hath sworn ^H7650 by himself, ^H5315 saying , Surely ^H3588 ^H518 I will fill ^H4390 thee with men, ^H120 as with caterpillars; ^H3218 and they shall lift up ^H6030 a shout ^H1959 against ^H5921 thee.

15 He hath made ^H6213 the earth ^H776 by his power, ^H3581 he hath established ^H3559 the world ^H8398 by his wisdom, ^H2451 and hath stretched out ^H5186 the heaven ^H8064 by his understanding. ^H8394

16 When he uttereth ^H5414 his voice, ^H6963 there is a multitude ^H1995 of waters ^H4325 in the heavens; ^H8064 and he causeth the vapors ^H5387 to ascend ^H5927 from the ends ^H4480 ^H7097 of the earth: ^H776 he maketh ^H6213 lightnings ^H1300 with rain, ^H4306 and bringeth forth ^H3318 the wind ^H7307 out of his treasures ^H4480 ^H214 .

17 Every ^H3605 man ^H120 is brutish ^H1197 by his knowledge ^H4480 ^H1847 ; every ^H3605 founder ^H6884 is confounded ^H3001 by the graven image ^H4480 ^H6459 : for ^H3588 his molten image ^H5262 is falsehood, ^H8267 and there is no ^H3808 breath ^H7307 in them.

18 They ^H1992 are vanity, ^H1892 the work ^H4639 of errors: ^H8595 in the time ^H6256 of their visitation ^H6486 they shall perish. ^H6

19 The portion ^H2506 of Jacob ^H3290 is not ^H3808 like them; ^H428 for ^H3588 he ^H1931 is the former ^H3335 of all things: ^H3605 and Israel is the rod ^H7626 of his inheritance: ^H5159 the LORD ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 is his name. ^H8034

20 Thou ^H859 art my battle axe ^H4661 and weapons ^H3627 of war: ^H4421 for with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 the nations, ^H1471 and with thee will I destroy ^H7843 kingdoms; ^H4467

21 And with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 the horse ^H5483 and his rider; ^H7392 and with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 the chariot ^H7393 and his rider; ^H7392

22 With thee also will I break in pieces ^H5310 man ^H376 and woman; ^H802 and with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 old ^H2205 and young; ^H5288 and with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 the young man ^H970 and the maid; ^H1330

23 I will also break in pieces ^H5310 with thee the shepherd ^H7462 and his flock; ^H5739 and with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 the husbandman ^H406 and his yoke of oxen; ^H6776 and with thee will I break in pieces ^H5310 captains ^H6346 and rulers. ^H5461

24 And I will render ^H7999 unto Babylon ^H894 and to all ^H3605 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Chaldea ^H3778 ^H853 all ^H3605 their evil ^H7451 that ^H834 they have done ^H6213 in Zion ^H6726 in your sight, ^H5869 saith ^H5002 the LORD. ^H3068

25 Behold ^H2009 , I am against ^H413 thee , O destroying ^H4889 mountain, ^H2022 saith ^H5002 the LORD, ^H3068 which destroyest ^H7843 ^H853 all ^H3605 the earth: ^H776 and I will stretch out ^H5186 ^H853 mine hand ^H3027 upon ^H5921 thee , and roll thee down ^H1556 from ^H4480 the rocks, ^H5553 and will make ^H5414 thee a burnt ^H8316 mountain. ^H2022

26 And they shall not ^H3808 take ^H3947 of ^H4480 thee a stone ^H68 for a corner, ^H6438 nor a stone ^H68 for foundations; ^H4146 but ^H3588 thou shalt be ^H1961 desolate ^H8077 forever, ^H5769 saith ^H5002 the LORD. ^H3068

27 Set ye up ^H5375 a standard ^H5251 in the land, ^H776 blow ^H8628 the trumpet ^H7782 among the nations, ^H1471 prepare ^H6942 the nations ^H1471 against ^H5921 her , call together ^H8085 against ^H5921 her the kingdoms ^H4467 of Ararat, ^H780 Minni, ^H4508 and Ashchenaz; ^H813 appoint ^H6485 a captain ^H2951 against ^H5921 her ; cause the horses ^H5483 to come up ^H5927 as the rough ^H5569 caterpillars. ^H3218

28 Prepare ^H6942 against ^H5921 her the nations ^H1471 with ^H853 the kings ^H4428 of the Medes, ^H4074 ^H853 the captains ^H6346 thereof , and all ^H3605 the rulers ^H5461 thereof , and all ^H3605 the land ^H776 of his dominion. ^H4475

29 And the land ^H776 shall tremble ^H7493 and sorrow: ^H2342 for ^H3588 every purpose ^H4284 of the LORD ^H3068 shall be performed ^H6965 against ^H5921 Babylon, ^H894 to make ^H7760 ^H853 the land ^H776 of Babylon ^H894 a desolation ^H8047 without ^H4480 ^H369 an inhabitant. ^H3427

30 The mighty men ^H1368 of Babylon ^H894 have forborne ^H2308 to fight, ^H3898 they have remained ^H3427 in their holds: ^H4679 their might ^H1369 hath failed; ^H5405 they became ^H1961 as women: ^H802 they have burned ^H3341 her dwelling places; ^H4908 her bars ^H1280 are broken. ^H7665

31 One post ^H7323 shall run ^H7323 to meet ^H7125 another, ^H7323 and one messenger ^H5046 to meet ^H7125 another, ^H5046 to show ^H5046 the king ^H4428 of Babylon ^H894 that ^H3588 his city ^H5892 is taken ^H3920 at one end ^H4480 ^H7097 ,

32 And that the passages ^H4569 are stopped, ^H8610 and the reeds ^H98 they have burned ^H8313 with fire, ^H784 and the men ^H376 of war ^H4421 are frightened. ^H926

33 For ^H3588 thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 the LORD ^H3068 of hosts, ^H6635 the God ^H430 of Israel; ^H3478 The daughter ^H1323 of Babylon ^H894 is like a threshingfloor, ^H1637 it is time ^H6256 to thresh ^H1869 her: yet ^H5750 a little while, ^H4592 and the time ^H6256 of her harvest ^H7105 shall come. ^H935

34 Nebuchadnezzar ^H5019 the king ^H4428 of Babylon ^H894 hath devoured ^H398 me , he hath crushed ^H2000 me , he hath made ^H3322 me an empty ^H7385 vessel, ^H3627 he hath swallowed me up ^H1104 like a dragon, ^H8577 he hath filled ^H4390 his belly ^H3770 with my delicacies ^H4480 ^H5730 , he hath cast me out. ^H1740

35 The violence ^H2555 done to me and to my flesh ^H7607 be upon ^H5921 Babylon, ^H894 shall the inhabitant ^H3427 of Zion ^H6726 say; ^H559 and my blood ^H1818 upon ^H413 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Chaldea, ^H3778 shall Jerusalem ^H3389 say. ^H559

36 Therefore ^H3651 thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 the LORD; ^H3068 Behold, ^H2009 I will plead ^H7378 ^H853 thy cause, ^H7379 and take vengeance for thee ^H5358 ^H853 ^H5360 ; and I will dry up ^H2717 ^H853 her sea, ^H3220 and make ^H853 her springs ^H4726 dry. ^H3001

37 And Babylon ^H894 shall become ^H1961 heaps, ^H1530 a dwelling place ^H4583 for dragons, ^H8577 an astonishment, ^H8047 and a hissing, ^H8322 without ^H4480 ^H369 an inhabitant. ^H3427

38 They shall roar ^H7580 together ^H3162 like lions: ^H3715 they shall yell ^H5286 as lions' ^H738 whelps. ^H1484

39 In their heat ^H2527 I will make ^H7896 ^H853 their feasts, ^H4960 and I will make them drunken, ^H7937 that ^H4616 they may rejoice, ^H5937 and sleep ^H3462 a perpetual ^H5769 sleep, ^H8142 and not ^H3808 wake, ^H6974 saith ^H5002 the LORD. ^H3068

40 I will bring them down ^H3381 like lambs ^H3733 to the slaughter, ^H2873 like rams ^H352 with ^H5973 he goats. ^H6260

41 How ^H349 is Sheshach ^H8347 taken ^H3920 ! and how is the praise ^H8416 of the whole ^H3605 earth ^H776 surprised ^H8610 ! how ^H349 is Babylon ^H894 become ^H1961 an astonishment ^H8047 among the nations ^H1471 !

42 The sea ^H3220 is come up ^H5927 upon ^H5921 Babylon: ^H894 she is covered ^H3680 with the multitude ^H1995 of the waves ^H1530 thereof.

43 Her cities ^H5892 are ^H1961 a desolation, ^H8047 a dry ^H6723 land, ^H776 and a wilderness, ^H6160 a land ^H776 wherein ^H2004 no ^H3605 ^H3808 man ^H376 dwelleth, ^H3427 neither ^H3808 doth any son ^H1121 of man ^H120 pass ^H5674 thereby. ^H2004

44 And I will punish ^H6485 ^H5921 Bel ^H1078 in Babylon, ^H894 and I will bring forth ^H3318 out of his mouth ^H4480 ^H6310 ^H853 that which he hath swallowed up: ^H1105 and the nations ^H1471 shall not ^H3808 flow together ^H5102 any more ^H5750 unto ^H413 him: yea, ^H1571 the wall ^H2346 of Babylon ^H894 shall fall. ^H5307

45 My people, ^H5971 go ^H3318 ye out of the midst ^H4480 ^H8432 of her , and deliver ^H4422 ye every man ^H376 ^H853 his soul ^H5315 from the fierce ^H4480 ^H2740 anger ^H639 of the LORD. ^H3068

46 And lest ^H6435 your heart ^H3824 faint, ^H7401 and ye fear ^H3372 for the rumor ^H8052 that shall be heard ^H8085 in the land; ^H776 a rumor ^H8052 shall both come ^H935 one year, ^H8141 and after ^H310 that in another year ^H8141 shall come a rumor, ^H8052 and violence ^H2555 in the land, ^H776 ruler ^H4910 against ^H5921 ruler. ^H4910

47 Therefore ^H3651 , behold, ^H2009 the days ^H3117 come, ^H935 that I will do judgment ^H6485 upon ^H5921 the graven images ^H6456 of Babylon: ^H894 and her whole ^H3605 land ^H776 shall be confounded, ^H954 and all ^H3605 her slain ^H2491 shall fall ^H5307 in the midst ^H8432 of her.

48 Then the heaven ^H8064 and the earth, ^H776 and all ^H3605 that ^H834 is therein , shall sing ^H7442 for ^H5921 Babylon: ^H894 for ^H3588 the spoilers ^H7703 shall come ^H935 unto her from the north ^H4480 ^H6828 , saith ^H5002 the LORD. ^H3068

49 As ^H1571 Babylon ^H894 hath caused the slain ^H2491 of Israel ^H3478 to fall, ^H5307 so ^H1571 at Babylon ^H894 shall fall ^H5307 the slain ^H2491 of all ^H3605 the earth. ^H776

50 Ye that have escaped ^H6412 the sword ^H4480 ^H2719 , go away, ^H1980 stand not still ^H408 ^H5975 : remember ^H2142 ^H853 the LORD ^H3068 afar off, ^H7350 and let Jerusalem ^H3389 come ^H5927 into ^H5921 your mind. ^H3824

51 We are confounded, ^H954 because ^H3588 we have heard ^H8085 reproach: ^H2781 shame ^H3639 hath covered ^H3680 our faces: ^H6440 for ^H3588 strangers ^H2114 are come ^H935 into ^H5921 the sanctuaries ^H4720 of the LORD's ^H3068 house. ^H1004

52 Wherefore ^H3651 , behold, ^H2009 the days ^H3117 come, ^H935 saith ^H5002 the LORD, ^H3068 that I will do judgment ^H6485 upon ^H5921 her graven images: ^H6456 and through all ^H3605 her land ^H776 the wounded ^H2491 shall groan. ^H602

53 Though ^H3588 Babylon ^H894 should mount up ^H5927 to heaven, ^H8064 and though ^H3588 she should fortify ^H1219 the height ^H4791 of her strength, ^H5797 yet from ^H4480 ^H854 me shall spoilers ^H7703 come ^H935 unto her, saith ^H5002 the LORD. ^H3068

54 A sound ^H6963 of a cry ^H2201 cometh from Babylon ^H4480 ^H894 , and great ^H1419 destruction ^H7667 from the land ^H4480 ^H776 of the Chaldeans: ^H3778

55 Because ^H3588 the LORD ^H3068 hath spoiled ^H7703 ^H853 Babylon, ^H894 and destroyed ^H6 out of ^H4480 her the great ^H1419 voice; ^H6963 when her waves ^H1530 do roar ^H1993 like great ^H7227 waters, ^H4325 a noise ^H7588 of their voice ^H6963 is uttered: ^H5414

56 Because ^H3588 the spoiler ^H7703 is come ^H935 upon ^H5921 her, even upon ^H5921 Babylon, ^H894 and her mighty men ^H1368 are taken, ^H3920 every one of their bows ^H7198 is broken: ^H2865 for ^H3588 the LORD ^H3068 God ^H410 of recompenses ^H1578 shall surely requite ^H7999 ^H7999 .

57 And I will make drunk ^H7937 her princes, ^H8269 and her wise ^H2450 men , her captains, ^H6346 and her rulers, ^H5461 and her mighty men: ^H1368 and they shall sleep ^H3462 a perpetual ^H5769 sleep, ^H8142 and not ^H3808 wake, ^H6974 saith ^H5002 the King, ^H4428 whose name ^H8034 is the LORD ^H3068 of hosts. ^H6635

58 Thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 the LORD ^H3068 of hosts; ^H6635 The broad ^H7342 walls ^H2346 of Babylon ^H894 shall be utterly broken ^H6209 ^H6209 , and her high ^H1364 gates ^H8179 shall be burned ^H3341 with fire; ^H784 and the people ^H5971 shall labor ^H3021 in vain, ^H7385 and the folk ^H3816 in the fire, ^H784 and they shall be weary. ^H3286

59 The word ^H1697 which ^H834 Jeremiah ^H3414 the prophet ^H5030 commanded ^H6680 ^H853 Seraiah ^H8304 the son ^H1121 of Neriah, ^H5374 the son ^H1121 of Maaseiah, ^H4271 when he went ^H1980 with ^H854 Zedekiah ^H6667 the king ^H4428 of Judah ^H3063 into Babylon ^H894 in the fourth ^H7243 year ^H8141 of his reign. ^H4427 And this Seraiah ^H8304 was a quiet ^H4496 prince. ^H8269

60 So Jeremiah ^H3414 wrote ^H3789 in ^H413 a ^H259 book ^H5612 ^H853 all ^H3605 the evil ^H7451 that ^H834 should come ^H935 upon ^H413 Babylon, ^H894 even ^H853 all ^H3605 these ^H428 words ^H1697 that are written ^H3789 against ^H413 Babylon. ^H894

61 And Jeremiah ^H3414 said ^H559 to ^H413 Seraiah, ^H8304 When thou comest ^H935 to Babylon, ^H894 and shalt see, ^H7200 and shalt read ^H7121 ^H853 all ^H3605 these ^H428 words; ^H1697

62 Then shalt thou say, ^H559 O LORD, ^H3068 thou ^H859 hast spoken ^H1696 against ^H413 this ^H2088 place, ^H4725 to cut it off, ^H3772 that none ^H1115 shall ^H1961 remain ^H3427 in it , neither man ^H4480 ^H120 nor ^H5704 beast, ^H929 but ^H3588 that it shall be ^H1961 desolate ^H8077 forever. ^H5769

63 And it shall be, ^H1961 when thou hast made an end ^H3615 of reading ^H7121 ^H853 this ^H2088 book, ^H5612 that thou shalt bind ^H7194 a stone ^H68 to ^H5921 it , and cast ^H7993 it into ^H413 the midst ^H8432 of Euphrates: ^H6578

64 And thou shalt say, ^H559 Thus ^H3602 shall Babylon ^H894 sink, ^H8257 and shall not ^H3808 rise ^H6965 from ^H4480 ^H6440 the evil ^H7451 that ^H834 I ^H595 will bring ^H935 upon ^H5921 her : and they shall be weary. ^H3286 Thus ^H5704 far ^H2008 are the words ^H1697 of Jeremiah. ^H3414
