Babylon Judged for Sins against Israel
1 This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“Behold H2009, I am going to stir H5782 up H5782
[fn]The spirit H7307 of a destroyer H7843 against H5921 Babylon H894
And against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of [fn]Leb-kamai H3820 H6965.
2 “I will send H7971 [fn]foreigners H2114 to Babylon H894 so that they may winnow H2219 her
And devastate H1238 her land H776;
For they will be opposed H5921 to her on every H5439 side H5439
On the day H3117 of her disaster H7451.
3 “Let not [fn]him who [fn]bends H1869 his bow H7198 [fn]bend H1869 it,
Nor H408 let him rise H5927 up H5927 in his coat H5630 of H5630 armor H5630.
Do not spare H2550 her young H970 men H970;
Devote H2763 all H3605 her army H6635 to H2763 destruction H2763.
4 “They will fall H5307 down H5307 [fn]dead H2491 in the land H776 of the Chaldeans H3778,
And pierced H1856 through H1856 in their streets H2351.”
5 For neither H3808 Israel H3478 nor H3808 Judah H3063 has been [fn]forsaken H488
By his God H430, the LORD H3068 of armies H6635,
Although H3588 their land H776 is full H4390 of guilt H817
[fn]Before H4480 the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478.
6 Flee H5127 from the midst H8432 of Babylon H894,
And each H376 of you save H4422 his life H5315!
Do not perish H1826 in her [fn]punishment H5771,
For this H1931 is the LORD’S H3068 time H6256 of vengeance H5360;
He is going to repay H7999 to her what H1576 she deserves H1576.
7 Babylon H894 has been a golden H2091 cup H3563 in the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068,
Intoxicating H7937 all H3605 the earth H776.
The nations H1471 have drunk H8354 of her wine H3196;
Therefore H5921 H3651 the nations H1471 are going H1984 insane H1984.
8 Suddenly H6597 Babylon H894 has fallen H5307 and been broken H7665;
Bring H3947 [fn]balm H6875 for her pain H4341;
Perhaps H194 she may be healed H7495.
9 We applied healing H7495 to Babylon H894, but she was not healed H7495;
Abandon H5800 her and let’s each H376 go H1980 to his own country H776,
For her judgment H4941 has reached H5060 to heaven H8064
And it rises H5375 to the clouds H7834.
10 The LORD H3068 has brought H3318 [fn]about H3318 our vindication H6666;
Come H935 and let’s recount H5608 in Zion H6726
The work H4639 of the LORD H3068 our God H430!
11 Sharpen H1305 the arrows H2671, fill H4390 the quivers H7982!
The LORD H3068 has stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of the kings H4428 of the Medes H4074,
Because H3588 His plan H4209 is against H5921 Babylon H894 to destroy H7843 it;
For it is the vengeance H5360 of the LORD H3068, vengeance H5360 for His temple H1964.
12 Lift H5375 up H5375 a signal H5251 flag H5251 against H413 the walls H2346 of Babylon H894;
Post H2388 a strong H2388 guard H4929,
Station H6965 [fn]sentries H8104,
Set H3559 up H3559 an ambush H693!
For the LORD H3068 has both H1571 planned H2161 and performed H6213
What H834 He spoke H1696 concerning H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Babylon H894.
13 You who live H7931 by many H7227 waters H4325,
Abundant H7227 in treasures H214,
The [fn]measure H520 of your [fn]end H1215.
14 The LORD H3068 of armies H6635 has sworn H7650 by Himself H5315:
“I will certainly H3588 H518 fill H4390 you with a [fn]population H120 like locusts H3218,
And they will cry H6030 out H6030 with shouts H1959 of H1959 victory H1959 over H5921 you.”
15 It is He who made H6213 the earth H776 by His power H3581,
Who established H3559 the world H8398 by His wisdom H2451,
And by His understanding H8394 He stretched H5186 out H5186 the heavens H8064.
16 When He utters H5414 His voice H6963, there is a roar H1995 of waters H4325 in the heavens H8064,
And He makes the clouds H5387 ascend H5927 from the end H7097 of the earth H776.
He makes H6213 lightning H1300 for the rain H4306
And brings H3318 out H3318 wind H7307 from His storehouses H214.
17 Every H3605 person H120 is H1197 stupid H1197, devoid H4480 of knowledge H1847;
Every H3605 goldsmith H6884 is put H954 to H954 shame H954 by his [fn]idols H6459,
For his cast H5262 metal H5262 images H5262 are deceitful H8267,
And there is no H3808 breath H7307 in them.
18 They are worthless H1892, a work H4639 of mockery H8595;
At the time H6256 of their punishment H6486 they will perish H6.
19 The portion H2506 of Jacob H3290 is not like these H428;
For He is the [fn]Maker H3335 of everything H3605,
And of the [fn]tribe H7626 of His inheritance H5159;
The LORD H3068 of armies H6635 is His name H8034.
20 He says, “You are My [fn]war-club H4661, My weapon H3627 of war H4421;
And with you I shatter H5310 nations H1471,
And with you I destroy H7843 kingdoms H4467.
21 “With you I shatter H5310 the horse H5483 and his rider H7392,
And with you I shatter H5310 the chariot H7393 and its rider H7392,
22 And with you I shatter H5310 man H376 and woman H802,
And with you I shatter H5310 the old H2205 man H376 and youth H5288,
And with you I shatter H5310 the young H970 man H970 and virgin H1330,
23 And with you I shatter H5310 the shepherd H7462 and his flock H5739,
And with you I shatter H5310 the farmer H406 and his team H6776,
And with you I shatter H5310 governors H6346 and officials H5461.
24 “But I will repay H7999 Babylon H894 and all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of Chaldea H3778 for all H3605 their evil H7451 that they have done H6213 in Zion H6726 before your eyes H5869,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
25 “Behold H2009, I am against H413 you, mountain H2022 of destruction H4889
That destroys H7843 the whole H3605 earth H776,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068,
“And I will stretch H5186 out H5186 My hand H3027 against H5921 you,
And roll H1556 you down H1556 from the rocky H5553 cliffs H5553,
And I will make H5414 you a burnt H8316 out mountain H2022.
26 “They will not take H3947 from you even a stone H68 for a corner H6438
Nor H3808 a stone H68 for foundations H4144,
But you will be desolate H8077 forever H5769,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
27 Lift H5375 up H5375 a signal H5251 flag H5251 in the land H776,
Blow H8628 a trumpet H7782 among the nations H1471!
Consecrate H6942 the nations H1471 against H5921 her,
Summon H8085 against H5921 her the kingdoms H4467 of Ararat H780, Minni H4508, and Ashkenaz H813;
Appoint H6485 an officer H2951 against H5921 her,
Bring H5927 up H5927 the horses H5483 like bristly H5569 locusts H3218.
28 Consecrate H6942 the nations H1471 against H5921 her,
The kings H4428 of the Medes H4074,
[fn]Their governors H6346 and all H3605 [fn]their officials H5461,
And every H3605 land H776 [fn]under their control H4475.
29 So the land H776 quakes H7493 and writhes H2342,
For the plans H4284 of the LORD H3068 against H5921 Babylon H894 stand H6965,
To make H7760 the land H776 of Babylon H894
[fn]A desolation H8047 without H369 inhabitants H3427.
30 The warriors H1368 of Babylon H894 have ceased H2308 fighting H3898,
They stay H3427 in the strongholds H4679;
Their strength H1369 is [fn]exhausted H5405,
They are becoming H1961 like women H802;
Their homes H4908 are set H3341 on H3341 fire H3341,
The bars H1280 of her gates are broken H7665.
31 One [fn]courier H7323 runs H7323 to meet H7122 [fn]another H7323,
And one [fn]messenger H5046 to meet H7122 [fn]another H5046,
To tell H5046 the king H4428 of Babylon H894
That his city H5892 has been captured H3920 from end H7097 to end;
32 The river H4569 crossing H4569 places H4569 have been seized H8610,
And they have burned H8313 the marshes H98 with fire H784,
And the men H376 of war H4421 are terrified H926.
33 For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478 says H559:
“The daughter H1323 of Babylon H894 is like a threshing H1637 floor H1637
At the time H6256 that [fn]it is tread H1869 down H1869;
In just a little H4592 while H5750 the time H6256 of harvest H7105 will come H935 for her.”
34 “Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 has devoured H398 me, he has crushed H2000 me,
He has set H3322 me down H3322 like an empty H7386 vessel H3627;
He has swallowed H1104 me like a monster H8577,
He has filled H4390 his stomach H3770 with my delicacies H5730;
He has washed H1740 me away H1740.
35 “May the violence H2555 done to me and to my flesh H7607 be upon Babylon H894,”
The [fn]inhabitant H3427 of Zion H6726 will say H559;
And, “May my blood H1818 be upon the inhabitants H3427 of Chaldea H3778,”
Jerusalem H3389 will say H559.
36 Therefore H3651 this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“Behold H2009, I am going to plead H7378 your case H7379
And take H5358 vengeance H5360 for you;
And I will dry H2717 up H2717 her [fn]sea H3220
And make H3001 her fountain H4726 dry H3001.
37 “Babylon H894 will become H1961 a heap H1530 of ruins, a haunt H4583 of jackals H8565,
An object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047 and hissing H8322, without H369 inhabitants H3427.
38 “They will roar H7580 together H3162 like young H3715 lions H3715,
They will growl H5286 like lions’ H738 cubs H1484.
39 “When they become H2552 heated H2552 up, I will serve H7896 them their banquet H4960
And make H7937 them drunk H7937, so H4616 that H4616 they may rejoice H5937 in H5937 triumph H5937,
And may sleep H3462 a perpetual H5769 sleep H8142
And not wake H3364 up,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
40 “I will bring H3381 them down H3381 like [fn]lambs H3733 to the slaughter H2873,
Like rams H352 together H5973 with H5973 male H6260 goats H6260.
41 “How H349 [fn]Sheshak H8347 has been captured H3920,
And the praise H8416 of the whole H3605 earth H776 has been seized H8610!
How H349 Babylon H894 has become H1961 an object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047 among the nations H1471!
42 “The [fn]sea H3220 has come H5927 up H5927 over H5921 Babylon H894;
She has been engulfed H3680 by its roaring H1995 waves H1530.
43 “Her cities H5892 have become H1961 an object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047,
A dry H6723 land H776 and a desert H6160,
A land H776 in which H2004 no H3808 H3605 one H376 lives H3427
And through which H2004 no H3808 [fn]one H1121 of mankind H120 passes H5674.
44 “I will punish H6485 Bel H1078 in Babylon H894,
And I will make what H1105 he has swallowed H1105 come H3318 out H3318 of his mouth H6310;
And the nations H1471 will no H3808 longer H5750 stream H5102 toward H413 him.
Even H1571 the wall H2346 of Babylon H894 has fallen H5307 down H5307!
45 “Come H3318 out H3318 from her midst H8432, My people H5971,
And each H376 of you save H4422 yourselves H5315
From the fierce H2740 anger H639 of the LORD H3068.
46 “Now, so H6435 that H6435 your heart H3824 does not H6435 grow H7401 faint H7401,
And you are H3372 not afraid H3372 at the report H8052 that will be heard H8085 in the land H776—
For the report H8052 will come H935 in [fn]one year H8141,
And after H310 that [fn]another report H8052 in [fn]another year H8141,
And violence H2555 will be in the land H776
With ruler H4910 against H5921 ruler H4910—
47 Therefore H3651 behold H2009, days H3117 are coming H935
When I will punish H6485 the idols H6456 of Babylon H894;
And her whole H3605 land H776 will be put H954 to H954 shame H954.
And all H3605 her slain H2491 will fall H5307 in her midst H8432.
48 “Then heaven H8064 and earth H776 and everything H3605 that is in them
Will shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442 over H5921 Babylon H894,
Because H3588 the destroyers H7703 will come H935 to her from the north H6828,”
Declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
49 Indeed H1571, Babylon H894 is to fall H5307 for the slain H2491 of Israel H3478,
As the slain H2491 of all H3605 the earth H776 have also H1571 fallen H5307 for Babylon H894.
50 You who H6412 have escaped H6412 the sword H2719,
Remember H2142 the LORD H3068 from far H7350 away H7350,
And let Jerusalem H3389 [fn]come H5927 to your mind H3824.
51 We are H954 ashamed H954 because H3588 we have heard H8085 rebuke H2781;
Disgrace H3639 has covered H3680 our faces H6440,
Because strangers H2114 have entered H935
The holy H4720 places H4720 of the LORD’S H3068 house H1004.
52 “Therefore H3651 behold H2009, the days H3117 are coming H935,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068,
“When I will punish H6485 her idols H6456,
And the mortally H2491 wounded H2491 will groan H602 throughout H3605 her land H776.
53 “Though H3588 Babylon H894 ascends H5927 to the heavens H8064,
And though H3588 she fortifies H1219 [fn]her lofty H4791 stronghold H5797,
Destroyers H7703 will come H935 from Me to her,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
54 The sound H6963 of an outcry H2201 from Babylon H894,
And of great H1419 destruction H7667 from the land H776 of the Chaldeans H3778!
55 For the LORD H3068 is going to destroy H7703 Babylon H894,
And He will make H6 her loud H1419 [fn]noise H6963 vanish H6 from her.
And their waves H1530 will roar H1993 like many H7227 waters H4325;
The clamor H7588 of their voices H6963 [fn]sounds H5414 forth H5414.
56 For the destroyer H7703 is coming H935 against H5921 her, against H5921 Babylon H894,
And her warriors H1368 will be captured H3920,
Their bows H7198 shattered H2865;
For the LORD H3068 is a God H410 of retribution H1578,
He will fully H7999 repay H7999.
57 “I will make H7937 her leaders H8269 and her wise H2450 men H2450 drunk H7937,
Her governors H6346, her officials H5461, and her warriors H1368,
So that they will sleep H3462 a perpetual H5769 sleep H8142 and not wake H3364 up,”
Declares H5002 the King H4428, whose name H8034 is the LORD H3068 of armies H6635.
58 This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635 says H559:
“The broad H7342 wall H2346 of Babylon H894 will be completely H6209 demolished H6209,
And her high H1364 gates H8179 will be set H3341 on fire H784;
So the peoples H5971 will labor H3021 for nothing H1767 H7385,
And the nations H3816 become H3286 exhausted H3286 only for fire H784.”
59 The [fn]command H1697 that H834 Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 [fn]gave H6680 Seraiah H8304 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374, the grandson H1121 of Mahseiah H4271, when he went H1980 with Zedekiah H6667 the king H4428 of Judah H3063 to Babylon H894 in the fourth H7243 year H8141 of his reign H4427. (And Seraiah H8304 was quartermaster H8269 H4496.)
60 Jeremiah H3414 wrote H3789 [fn]on a single H259 scroll H5612 all H3605 the disaster H7451 which H834 would come H935 against Babylon H894, that is, all H3605 these H428 words H1697 which have been written H3789 concerning H413 Babylon H894. 61 Then Jeremiah H3414 said H559 to Seraiah H8304, “As soon as you come H935 to Babylon H894, see H7200 that you read H7121 all H3605 these H428 words H1697 aloud, 62 and say H559, ‘You, LORD H3068, have [fn]promised H1696 concerning H413 this H2088 place H4725 to cut H3772 it off H3772, so that there will be nothing H1115 living H3427 in it, [fn]whether H4480 man H120 or animal H929; but it will be a permanent H5769 desolation H8077.’ 63 And as soon as you finish H3615 reading H7121 this H2088 [fn]scroll H5612, you shall tie H7194 a stone H68 to it and throw H7993 it into the middle H8432 of the Euphrates H6578, 64 and say H559, ‘Just H3602 so H3602 shall Babylon H894 sink H8257 down H8257 and not rise H6965 again, because H4480 H6440 of the disaster H7451 that I am going to bring H935 upon her; and they will become H3286 exhausted H3286.’” To this H2008 point H2008 are the words H1697 of Jeremiah H3414.
