Jeremiah 50:1 - 50:3

Word Against Babylon

The word which Yahweh spoke concerning Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet:
2
“Declare and make it heard among the nations.
Make it heard and lift up a standard.
Do not conceal it but say,
‘Babylon has been captured;
Bel has been put to shame; Marduk has been shattered;
Her images have been put to shame; her idols have been shattered.’
3 For a nation has come up against her out of the north; it will make her land an object of horror, and there will be no inhabitant in it. Both man and beast have wandered off; they have gone away!
