Jeremiah:51:6-25
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 LORDS vengeance ;
he will render unto her a recompence .
*
Babylon hath been a golden cup in the LORDS hand ,
that made all the earth drunken :
the nations have drunken of her wine ;
therefore the nations are mad .
*
Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed :
howl for her ;
take balm for her pain mak #
ob #,
if so be she may be healed .
*
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 .
*
The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness :
come ,
and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
O thou that dwellest (
8675 )
upon many waters ,
abundant in treasures ,
thine end is come ,
and the measure of thy covetousness .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
Every man is brutish by his knowledge da #
ath #;
every founder is confounded by the graven image :
for his molten image is falsehood ,
and there is no breath in them .
*
They are vanity ,
the work of errors :
in the time of their visitation they shall perish .
*
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 .
*
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 ;
*
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 ;
*
With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman ;
and with thee will I break in pieces old and young na #
ar #;
and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid ;
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
