and the sins{H2403} of Judah,{H3063} and they shall not be found:{H4672} for I will pardon{H5545} them whom I leave as a remnant.{H7604} 21 Go up{H5927} against the land{H776} of Merathaim,{H4850} even against it, and against the inhabitants{H3427} of Pekod:{H6489} slay{H2717} and utterly destroy{H2763} after{H310} them, saith{H5002} Jehovah,{H3068} and do{H6213} according to all that I have commanded{H6680} thee. 22 A sound{H6963} of battle{H4421} is in the land,{H776} and of great{H1419} destruction.{H7667} 23 How is the hammer{H6360} of the whole earth{H776} cut asunder{H1438} and broken!{H7665} how is Babylon{H894} become a desolation{H8047} among the nations!{H1471} 24 I have laid a snare{H3369} for thee, and thou art also taken,{H3920} O Babylon,{H894} and thou wast not aware:{H3045} thou art found,{H4672} and also caught,{H8610} because thou hast striven{H1624} against Jehovah.{H3068} 25 Jehovah{H3068} hath opened{H6605} his armory,{H214} and hath brought forth{H3318} the weapons{H3627} of his indignation;{H2195} for the Lord,{H136} Jehovah{H136} of hosts,{H6635} hath a work{H4399} [to do] in the land{H776} of the Chaldeans.{H3778} 26 Come{H935} against her from the utmost border;{H7093} open{H6605} her store-houses;{H3965} cast her up{H5549} as heaps,{H6194} and destroy her utterly;{H2763} let nothing of her be left.{H7611} 27 Slay{H2717} all her bullocks;{H6499} let them go down{H3381} to the slaughter:{H2874} woe{H1945} unto them! for their day{H3117} is come,{H935} the time{H6256} of their visitation.{H6486} 28 The voice{H6963} of them that flee{H5127} and escape out{H6405} of the land{H776} of Babylon,{H894} to declare{H5046} in Zion{H6726} the vengeance{H5360} of Jehovah{H3068} our God,{H430} the vengeance{H5360} of his temple.{H1964} 29 Call together{H8085} the archers{H7228} against Babylon,{H894} all them that bend{H1869} the bow;{H7198} encamp{H2583} against her round about;{H5439} let none thereof escape:{H6413} recompense{H7999} her according to her work;{H6467} according to all that she hath done,{H6213} do{H6213} unto her; for she hath been proud{H2102} against Jehovah,{H3068} against the Holy One{H6918} of Israel.{H3478} 30 Therefore shall her young men{H970} fall{H5307} in her streets,{H7339} and all her men{H582} of war{H4421} shall be brought to silence{H1826} in that day,{H3117} saith{H5002} Jehovah.{H3068} 31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou proud{H2087} one, saith{H5002} the Lord,{H136} Jehovah{H3069} of hosts;{H6635} for thy day{H3117} is come,{H935} the time{H6256} that I will visit{H6485} thee. 32 And the proud{H2087} one shall stumble{H3782} and fall,{H5307} and none shall raise him up;{H6965} and I will kindle{H3341} a fire{H784} in his cities,{H5892} and it shall devour{H398} all that are round about{H5439} him. 33 Thus saith{H559} Jehovah{H3068} of hosts:{H6635} The children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} and the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} are oppressed{H6231} together;{H3162} and all that took them captive{H7617} hold them fast;{H2388} they refuse{H3985} to let them go.{H7971} 34 Their Redeemer{H1350} is strong;{H2389} Jehovah{H3068} of hosts{H6635} is his name:{H8034} he will thoroughly{H7378} plead{H7378} their cause,{H7379} that he may give rest{H7280} to the earth,{H776} and disquiet{H7264} the inhabitants{H3427} of Babylon.{H894} 35 A sword{H2719} is upon the Chaldeans,{H3778} saith{H5002} Jehovah,{H3068} and upon the inhabitants{H3427} of Babylon,{H894} and upon her princes,{H8269} and upon her wise{H2450} men. 36 A sword{H2719} is upon the boasters,{H907} and they shall become fools;{H2973} a sword{H2719} is upon her mighty men,{H1368} and they shall be dismayed.{H2865} 37 A sword{H2719} is upon their horses,{H5483} and upon their chariots,{H7393} and upon all the mingled people{H6153} that are in the midst{H8432} of her; and they shall become as women:{H802} a sword{H2719} is upon her treasures,{H214} and they shall be robbed.{H962} 38 A drought{H2721} is upon her waters,{H4325} and they shall be dried up;{H3001} for it is a land{H776} of graven images,{H6456} and they are mad{H1984} over idols.{H367} 39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert{H6728} with the wolves{H338} shall dwell{H3427} there, and the ostriches{H1323} shall dwell{H3427} therein: and it shall be no more inhabited{H3427} for ever;{H5331} neither shall it be dwelt{H7931} in from generation{H1755} to generation.{H1755} 40 As when God{H430} overthrew{H4114} Sodom{H5467} and Gomorrah{H6017} and the neighbor{H7934} cities thereof, saith{H5002} Jehovah,{H3068} so shall no man{H376} dwell{H3427} there, neither shall any son{H1121} of man{H120} sojourn{H1481} therein. 41 Behold, a people{H5971} cometh{H935} from the north;{H6828} and a great{H1419} nation{H1471} and many{H7227} kings{H4428} shall be stirred up{H5782} from the uttermost parts{H3411} of the earth.{H776} 42 They lay hold{H2388} on bow{H7198} and spear;{H3591} they are cruel,{H394} and have no mercy;{H7355} their voice{H6963} roareth{H1993} like the sea;{H3220} and they ride{H7392} upon horses,{H5483} every one set in array,{H6186} as a man{H376} to the battle,{H4421} against thee, O daughter{H1323} of Babylon.{H894} 43 The king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} hath heard{H8085} the tidings{H8088} of them, and his hands{H3027} wax feeble:{H7503} anguish{H6869} hath taken hold{H2388} of him, and pangs{H2427} as of a woman in travail.{H3205} 44 Behold, [the enemy] shall come up{H5927} like a lion{H738} from the pride{H1347} of the Jordan{H3383} against the strong{H386} habitation:{H5116} for I will suddenly{H7280} make{H7323} them run away{H7323} from it; and whoso is chosen,{H977} him will I appoint{H6485} over it: for who is like me? and who will appoint me a time?{H3259} and who is the shepherd{H7462} that can stand{H5975} before{H6440} me? 45 Therefore hear{H8085} ye the counsel{H6098} of Jehovah,{H3068} that he hath taken{H3289} against Babylon;{H894} and his purposes,{H4284} that he hath purposed{H2803} against the land{H776} of the Chaldeans:{H3778} Surely they shall drag them away,{H5498} [even] the little{H6810} ones of the flock;{H6629} surely he shall make their habitation{H5116} desolate{H8074} over them. 46 At the noise{H6963} of the taking{H8610} of Babylon{H894} the earth{H776} trembleth,{H7493} and the cry{H2201} is heard{H8085} among the nations.{H1471}
