publish{H8085}{(H8685)}, and conceal{H3582}{(H8762)} not: say{H559}{(H8798)}, Babylon{H894} is taken{H3920}{(H8738)}, Bel{H1078} is confounded{H3001}{(H8689)}, Merodach{H4781} is broken in pieces{H2865}{(H8804)}; her idols{H6091} are confounded{H3001}{(H8689)}, her images{H1544} are broken in pieces{H2865}{(H8804)}. 3 For out of the north{H6828} there cometh up{H5927}{(H8804)} a nation{H1471} against her, which shall make{H7896}{(H8799)} her land{H776} desolate{H8047}, and none shall dwell{H3427}{(H8802)} therein: they shall remove{H5110}{(H8804)}, they shall depart{H1980}{(H8804)}, both man{H120} and beast{H929}. 4 In those days{H3117}, and in that time{H6256}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} shall come{H935}{(H8799)}, they and the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} together{H3162}, going{H1980}{(H8800)} and weeping{H1058}{(H8800)}: they shall go{H3212}{(H8799)}, and seek{H1245}{(H8762)} the LORD{H3068} their God{H430}. 5 They shall ask{H7592}{(H8799)} the way{H1870} to Zion{H6726} with their faces{H6440} thitherward{H2008}, saying, Come{H935}{(H8798)}, and let us join{H3867}{(H8738)} ourselves to the LORD{H3068} in a perpetual{H5769} covenant{H1285} that shall not be forgotten{H7911}{(H8735)}. 6 My people{H5971} hath been lost{H6}{(H8802)} sheep{H6629}: their shepherds{H7462}{(H8802)} have caused them to go astray{H8582}{(H8689)}, they have turned them away{H7725}{(H8790)}{(H8675)}{H7726} on the mountains{H2022}: they have gone{H1980}{(H8804)} from mountain{H2022} to hill{H1389}, they have forgotten{H7911}{(H8804)} their restingplace{H7258}. 7 All that found{H4672}{(H8802)} them have devoured{H398}{(H8804)} them: and their adversaries{H6862} said{H559}{(H8804)}, We offend{H816}{(H8799)} not, because they have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068}, the habitation{H5116} of justice{H6664}, even the LORD{H3068}, the hope{H4723} of their fathers{H1}. 8 Remove{H5110}{(H8798)} out of the midst{H8432} of Babylon{H894}, and go forth{H3318}{(H8798)}{(H8675)}{H3318}{(H8799)} out of the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}, and be as the he goats{H6260} before{H6440} the flocks{H6629}. 9 For, lo, I will raise{H5782}{(H8688)} and cause to come up{H5927}{(H8688)} against Babylon{H894} an assembly{H6951} of great{H1419} nations{H1471} from the north{H6828} country{H776}: and they shall set themselves in array{H6186}{(H8804)} against her; from thence she shall be taken{H3920}{(H8735)}: their arrows{H2671} shall be as of a mighty{H1368} expert man{H7919}{(H8688)}{(H8676)}{H7921}{(H8688)}; none shall return{H7725}{(H8799)} in vain{H7387}. 10 And Chaldea{H3778} shall be a spoil{H7998}: all that spoil{H7997}{(H8802)} her shall be satisfied{H7646}{(H8799)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 11 Because ye were glad{H8055}{(H8799)}, because ye rejoiced{H5937}{(H8799)}, O ye destroyers{H8154}{(H8802)} of mine heritage{H5159}, because ye are grown fat{H6335}{(H8799)} as the heifer{H5697} at grass{H1877}{(H8676)}{H1758}{(H8801)}, and bellow{H6670}{(H8799)} as bulls{H47}; 12 Your mother{H517} shall be sore{H3966} confounded{H954}{(H8804)}; she that bare{H3205}{(H8802)} you shall be ashamed{H2659}{(H8804)}: behold, the hindermost{H319} of the nations{H1471} shall be a wilderness{H4057}, a dry land{H6723}, and a desert{H6160}. 13 Because of the wrath{H7110} of the LORD{H3068} it shall not be inhabited{H3427}{(H8799)}, but it shall be wholly desolate{H8077}: every one that goeth{H5674}{(H8802)} by Babylon{H894} shall be astonished{H8074}{(H8799)}, and hiss{H8319}{(H8799)} at all her plagues{H4347}. 14 Put yourselves in array{H6186}{(H8798)} against Babylon{H894} round about{H5439}: all ye that bend{H1869}{(H8802)} the bow{H7198}, shoot{H3034}{(H8798)} at her, spare{H2550}{(H8799)} no arrows{H2671}: for she hath sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068}. 15 Shout{H7321}{(H8685)} against her round about{H5439}: she hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} her hand{H3027}: her foundations{H803} are fallen{H5307}{(H8804)}, her walls{H2346} are thrown down{H2040}{(H8738)}: for it is the vengeance{H5360} of the LORD{H3068}: take vengeance{H5358}{(H8734)} upon her; as she hath done{H6213}{(H8804)}, do{H6213}{(H8798)} unto her. 16 Cut off{H3772}{(H8798)} the sower{H2232}{(H8802)} from Babylon{H894}, and him that handleth{H8610}{(H8802)} the sickle{H4038} in the time{H6256} of harvest{H7105}: for fear{H6440} of the oppressing{H3238}{(H8802)} sword{H2719} they shall turn{H6437}{(H8799)} every one{H376} to his people{H5971}, and they shall flee{H5127}{(H8799)} every one{H376} to his own land{H776}. 17 Israel{H3478} is a scattered{H6340}{(H8801)} sheep{H7716}; the lions{H738} have driven him away{H5080}{(H8689)}: first{H7223} the king{H4428} of Assyria{H804} hath devoured{H398}{(H8804)} him; and last{H314} this Nebuchadrezzar{H5019} king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} hath broken his bones{H6105}{(H8765)}. 18 Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, the God{H430} of Israel{H3478}; Behold, I will punish{H6485}{(H8802)} the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} and his land{H776}, as I have punished{H6485}{(H8804)} the king{H4428} of Assyria{H804}. 19 And I will bring{H7725} Israel{H3478} again{H7725}{(H8790)} to his habitation{H5116}, and he shall feed{H7462}{(H8804)} on Carmel{H3760} and Bashan{H1316}, and his soul{H5315} shall be satisfied{H7646}{(H8799)} upon mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669} and Gilead{H1568}. 20 In those days{H3117}, and in that time{H6256}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, the iniquity{H5771} of Israel{H3478} shall be sought for{H1245}{(H8792)}, and there shall be none; and the sins{H2403} of Judah{H3063}, and they shall not be found{H4672}{(H8735)}: for I will pardon{H5545}{(H8799)} them whom I reserve{H7604}{(H8686)}. 21 Go up{H5927}{(H8798)} against the land{H776} of Merathaim{H4850}, even against it, and against the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Pekod{H6489}: waste{H2717}{(H8798)} and utterly destroy{H2763}{(H8687)} after{H310} them, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, and do{H6213}{(H8798)} according to all that I have commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} 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}{(H8738)} and broken{H7665}{(H8735)}! how is Babylon{H894} become a desolation{H8047} among the nations{H1471}! 24 I have laid a snare{H3369}{(H8804)} for thee, and thou art also taken{H3920}{(H8738)}, O Babylon{H894}, and thou wast not aware{H3045}{(H8804)}: thou art found{H4672}{(H8738)}, and also caught{H8610}{(H8738)}, because thou hast striven{H1624}{(H8694)} against the LORD{H3068}. 25 The LORD{H3068} hath opened{H6605}{(H8804)} his armoury{H214}, and hath brought forth{H3318}{(H8686)} the weapons{H3627} of his indignation{H2195}: for this is the work{H4399} of the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069} of hosts{H6635} in the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}. 26 Come{H935}{(H8798)} against her from the utmost border{H7093}, open{H6605}{(H8798)} her storehouses{H3965}: cast her up{H5549}{(H8798)} as heaps{H6194}, and destroy her utterly{H2763}{(H8685)}: let nothing of her be left{H7611}. 27 Slay{H2717}{(H8798)} all her bullocks{H6499}; let them go down{H3381}{(H8799)} to the slaughter{H2874}: woe{H1945} unto them! for their day{H3117} is come{H935}{(H8802)}, the time{H6256} of their visitation{H6486}. 28 The voice{H6963} of them that flee{H5127}{(H8801)} and escape out{H6405} of the land{H776} of Babylon{H894}, to declare{H5046}{(H8687)} in Zion{H6726} the vengeance{H5360} of the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}, the vengeance{H5360} of his temple{H1964}. 29 Call together{H8085}{(H8685)} the archers{H7228} against Babylon{H894}: all ye that bend{H1869}{(H8802)} the bow{H7198}, camp{H2583}{(H8798)} against it round about{H5439}; let none thereof escape{H6413}: recompense{H7999}{(H8761)} her according to her work{H6467}; according to all that she hath done{H6213}{(H8804)}, do{H6213}{(H8798)} unto her: for she hath been proud{H2102}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068}, against the Holy One{H6918} of Israel{H3478}. 30 Therefore shall her young men{H970} fall{H5307}{(H8799)} in the streets{H7339}, and all her men{H582} of war{H4421} shall be cut off{H1826}{(H8735)} in that day{H3117}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud{H2087}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069} of hosts{H6635}: for thy day{H3117} is come{H935}{(H8802)}, the time{H6256} that I will visit{H6485}{(H8804)} thee. 32 And the most proud{H2087} shall stumble{H3782}{(H8804)} and fall{H5307}{(H8804)}, and none shall raise him up{H6965}{(H8688)}: and I will kindle{H3341}{(H8689)} a fire{H784} in his cities{H5892}, and it shall devour{H398}{(H8804)} all round about{H5439} him. 33 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}; The children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} and the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} were oppressed{H6231}{(H8803)} together{H3162}: and all that took them captives{H7617}{(H8802)} held them fast{H2388}{(H8689)}; they refused{H3985}{(H8765)} to let them go{H7971}{(H8763)}. 34 Their Redeemer{H1350}{(H8802)} is strong{H2389}; the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} is his name{H8034}: he shall throughly{H7378}{(H8800)} plead{H7378}{(H8799)} their cause{H7379}, that he may give rest{H7280}{(H8689)} to the land{H776}, and disquiet{H7264}{(H8689)} the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Babylon{H894}. 35 A sword{H2719} is upon the Chaldeans{H3778}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, and upon the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Babylon{H894}, and upon her princes{H8269}, and upon her wise{H2450} men. 36 A sword{H2719} is upon the liars{H907}; and they shall dote{H2973}{(H8738)}: a sword{H2719} is upon her mighty men{H1368}; and they shall be dismayed{H2865}{(H8804)}. 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}{(H8795)}. 38 A drought{H2721} is upon her waters{H4325}; and they shall be dried up{H3001}{(H8804)}: for it is the land{H776} of graven images{H6456}, and they are mad{H1984}{(H8704)} upon their idols{H367}. 39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert{H6728} with the wild beasts of the islands{H338} shall dwell{H3427}{(H8799)} there, and the owls{H1323}{H3284} shall dwell{H3427}{(H8804)} therein: and it shall be no more inhabited{H3427}{(H8799)} for ever{H5331}; neither shall it be dwelt{H7931}{(H8799)} in from generation{H1755} to generation{H1755}. 40 As God{H430} overthrew{H4114} Sodom{H5467} and Gomorrah{H6017} and the neighbour{H7934} cities thereof, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}; so shall no man{H376} abide{H3427}{(H8799)} there, neither shall any son{H1121} of man{H120} dwell{H1481}{(H8799)} therein. 41 Behold, a people{H5971} shall come{H935}{(H8802)} from the north{H6828}, and a great{H1419} nation{H1471}, and many{H7227} kings{H4428} shall be raised up{H5782}{(H8735)} from the coasts{H3411} of the earth{H776}. 42 They shall hold{H2388}{(H8686)} the bow{H7198} and the lance{H3591}: they are cruel{H394}, and will not shew mercy{H7355}{(H8762)}: their voice{H6963} shall roar{H1993}{(H8799)} like the sea{H3220}, and they shall ride{H7392}{(H8799)} upon horses{H5483}, every one put in array{H6186}{(H8803)}, like 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}{(H8804)} the report{H8088} of them, and his hands{H3027} waxed feeble{H7503}{(H8804)}: anguish{H6869} took hold{H2388}{(H8689)} of him, and pangs{H2427} as of a woman in travail{H3205}{(H8802)}. 44 Behold, he shall come up{H5927}{(H8799)} like a lion{H738} from the swelling{H1347} of Jordan{H3383} unto the habitation{H5116} of the strong{H386}: but I will make{H7323} them suddenly{H7280}{(H8686)} run away{H7323}{(H8686)}{(H8675)}{H7323}{(H8799)} from her: and who is a chosen{H977}{(H8803)} man, that I may appoint{H6485}{(H8799)} over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time{H3259}{(H8686)}? and who is that shepherd{H7462}{(H8802)} that will stand{H5975}{(H8799)} before{H6440} me? 45 Therefore hear{H8085}{(H8798)} ye the counsel{H6098} of the LORD{H3068}, that he hath taken{H3289}{(H8804)} against Babylon{H894}; and his purposes{H4284}, that he hath purposed{H2803}{(H8804)} against the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}: Surely the least{H6810} of the flock{H6629} shall draw them out{H5498}{(H8799)}: surely he shall make their habitation{H5116} desolate{H8074}{(H8686)} with them. 46 At the noise{H6963} of the taking{H8610}{(H8738)} of Babylon{H894} the earth{H776} is moved{H7493}{(H8735)}, and the cry{H2201} is heard{H8085}{(H8738)} among the nations{H1471}. 1 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}; Behold, I will raise up{H5782}{(H8688)} against Babylon{H894}, and against them that dwell{H3427}{(H8802)} in the midst{H3820} of them that rise up{H6965}{(H8801)} against me, a destroying{H7843}{(H8688)} wind{H7307}; 2 And will send{H7971}{(H8765)} unto Babylon{H894} fanners{H2114}{(H8801)}, that shall fan{H2219}{(H8765)} her, and shall empty{H1238}{(H8787)} her land{H776}: for in the day{H3117} of trouble{H7451} they shall be against her round about{H5439}. 3 Against him that bendeth{H1869} let the archer{H1869}{(H8802)} bend{H1869}{(H8799)} his bow{H7198}, and against him that lifteth himself up{H5927}{(H8691)} in his brigandine{H5630}: and spare{H2550}{(H8799)} ye not her young men{H970}; destroy ye utterly{H2763}{(H8685)} all her host{H6635}. 4 Thus the slain{H2491} shall fall{H5307}{(H8804)} in the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}, and they that are thrust through{H1856}{(H8794)} in her streets{H2351}. 5 For Israel{H3478} hath not been forsaken{H488}, nor Judah{H3063} of his God{H430}, of the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}; though their land{H776} was filled{H4390}{(H8804)} with sin{H817} against the Holy One{H6918} of Israel{H3478}. 6 Flee out{H5127}{(H8798)} of the midst{H8432} of Babylon{H894}, and deliver{H4422}{(H8761)} every man{H376} his soul{H5315}: be not cut off{H1826}{(H8735)} in her iniquity{H5771}; for this is the time{H6256} of the LORD'S{H3068} vengeance{H5360}; he will render{H7999}{(H8764)} unto her a recompence{H1576}. 7 Babylon{H894} hath been a golden{H2091} cup{H3563} in the LORD'S{H3068} hand{H3027}, that made all the earth{H776} drunken{H7937}{(H8764)}: the nations{H1471} have drunken{H8354}{(H8804)} of her wine{H3196}; therefore the nations{H1471} are mad{H1984}{(H8704)}. 8 Babylon{H894} is suddenly{H6597} fallen{H5307}{(H8804)} and destroyed{H7665}{(H8735)}: howl{H3213}{(H8685)} for her; take{H3947}{(H8798)} balm{H6875} for her pain{H4341}, if so be she may be healed{H7495}{(H8735)}. 9 We would have healed{H7495}{(H8765)} Babylon{H894}, but she is not healed{H7495}{(H8738)}: forsake{H5800}{(H8798)} her, and let us go{H3212}{(H8799)} every one{H376} into his own country{H776}: for her judgment{H4941} reacheth{H5060}{(H8804)} unto heaven{H8064}, and is lifted up{H5375}{(H8738)} even to the skies{H7834}. 10 The LORD{H3068} hath brought forth{H3318}{(H8689)} our righteousness{H6666}: come{H935}{(H8798)}, and let us declare{H5608}{(H8762)} in Zion{H6726} the work{H4639} of the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}. 11 Make bright{H1305}{(H8685)} the arrows{H2671}; gather{H4390}{(H8798)} the shields{H7982}: the LORD{H3068} hath raised up{H5782}{(H8689)} the spirit{H7307} of the kings{H4428} of the Medes{H4074}: for his device{H4209} is against Babylon{H894}, to destroy{H7843}{(H8687)} it; because it is the vengeance{H5360} of the LORD{H3068}, the vengeance{H5360} of his temple{H1964}. 12 Set up{H5375}{(H8798)} the standard{H5251} upon the walls{H2346} of Babylon{H894}, make the watch{H4929} strong{H2388}{(H8685)}, set up{H6965}{(H8685)} the watchmen{H8104}{(H8802)}, prepare{H3559}{(H8685)} the ambushes{H693}{(H8802)}: for the LORD{H3068} hath both devised{H2161}{(H8804)} and done{H6213}{(H8804)} that which he spake{H1696}{(H8765)} against the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Babylon{H894}. 13 O thou that dwellest{H7931}{(H8802)}{(H8675)}{H7931}{(H8804)} upon many{H7227} waters{H4325}, abundant{H7227} in treasures{H214}, thine end{H7093} is come{H935}{(H8802)}, and the measure{H520} of thy covetousness{H1215}. 14 The LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} hath sworn{H7650}{(H8738)} by himself{H5315}, saying, Surely I will fill{H4390}{(H8765)} thee with men{H120}, as with caterpillers{H3218}; and they shall lift up{H6030}{(H8804)} a shout{H1959} against thee. 15 He hath made{H6213}{(H8802)} the earth{H776} by his power{H3581}, he hath established{H3559}{(H8688)} the world{H8398} by his wisdom{H2451}, and hath stretched out{H5186}{(H8804)} the heaven{H8064} by his understanding{H8394}. 16 When he uttereth{H5414}{(H8800)} his voice{H6963}, there is a multitude{H1995} of waters{H4325} in the heavens{H8064}; and he causeth the vapours{H5387} to ascend{H5927}{(H8686)} from the ends{H7097} of the earth{H776}: he maketh{H6213}{(H8804)} lightnings{H1300} with rain{H4306}, and bringeth forth{H3318}{(H8686)} the wind{H7307} out of his treasures{H214}. 17 Every man{H120} is brutish{H1197}{(H8738)} by his knowledge{H1847}; every founder{H6884}{(H8802)} is confounded{H3001}{(H8689)} by the graven image{H6459}: for his molten image{H5262} is falsehood{H8267}, and there is no breath{H7307} in them. 18 They are vanity{H1892}, the work{H4639} of errors{H8595}: in the time{H6256} of their visitation{H6486} they shall perish{H6}{(H8799)}. 19 The portion{H2506} of Jacob{H3290} is not like them; for he is the former{H3335}{(H8802)} of all things: and Israel is the rod{H7626} of his inheritance{H5159}: the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} is his name{H8034}. 20 Thou art my battle axe{H4661} and weapons{H3627} of war{H4421}: for with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} the nations{H1471}, and with thee will I destroy{H7843}{(H8689)} kingdoms{H4467}; 21 And with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} the horse{H5483} and his rider{H7392}{(H8802)}; and with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} the chariot{H7393} and his rider{H7392}{(H8802)}; 22 With thee also will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} man{H376} and woman{H802}; and with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} old{H2205} and young{H5288}; and with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} the young man{H970} and the maid{H1330}; 23 I will also break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} with thee the shepherd{H7462}{(H8802)} and his flock{H5739}; and with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} the husbandman{H406} and his yoke of oxen{H6776}; and with thee will I break in pieces{H5310}{(H8765)} captains{H6346} and rulers{H5461}. 24 And I will render{H7999}{(H8765)} unto Babylon{H894} and to all the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Chaldea{H3778} all their evil{H7451} that they have done{H6213}{(H8804)} in Zion{H6726} in your sight{H5869}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 25 Behold, I am against thee, O destroying{H4889} mountain{H2022}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, which destroyest{H7843}{(H8688)} all the earth{H776}: and I will stretch out{H5186}{(H8804)} mine hand{H3027} upon thee, and roll thee down{H1556}{(H8773)} from the rocks{H5553}, and will make{H5414}{(H8804)} thee a burnt{H8316} mountain{H2022}. 26 And they shall not take{H3947}{(H8799)} of thee a stone{H68} for a corner{H6438}, nor a stone{H68} for foundations{H4146}; but thou shalt be desolate{H8077} for ever{H5769}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 27 Set ye up{H5375}{(H8798)} a standard{H5251} in the land{H776}, blow{H8628}{(H8798)} the trumpet{H7782} among the nations{H1471}, prepare{H6942}{(H8761)} the nations{H1471} against her, call together{H8085}{(H8685)} against her the kingdoms{H4467} of Ararat{H780}, Minni{H4508}, and Ashchenaz{H813}; appoint{H6485}{(H8798)} a captain{H2951} against her; cause the horses{H5483} to come up{H5927}{(H8685)} as the rough{H5569} caterpillers{H3218}. 28 Prepare{H6942}{(H8761)} against her the nations{H1471} with the kings{H4428} of the Medes{H4074}, the captains{H6346} thereof, and all the rulers{H5461} thereof, and all the land{H776} of his dominion{H4475}. 29 And the land{H776} shall tremble{H7493}{(H8799)} and sorrow{H2342}{(H8799)}: for every purpose{H4284} of the LORD{H3068} shall be performed{H6965}{(H8804)} against Babylon{H894}, to make{H7760}{(H8800)} the land{H776} of Babylon{H894} a desolation{H8047} without an inhabitant{H3427}{(H8802)}. 30 The mighty men{H1368} of Babylon{H894} have forborn{H2308}{(H8804)} to fight{H3898}{(H8736)}, they have remained{H3427}{(H8804)} in their holds{H4679}: their might{H1369} hath failed{H5405}{(H8804)}; they became as women{H802}: they have burned{H3341}{(H8689)} her dwellingplaces{H4908}; her bars{H1280} are broken{H7665}{(H8738)}. 31 One post{H7323}{(H8801)} shall run{H7323}{(H8799)} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} another{H7323}{(H8801)}, and one messenger{H5046}{(H8688)} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} another{H5046}{(H8688)}, to shew{H5046}{(H8687)} the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} that his city{H5892} is taken{H3920}{(H8738)} at one end{H7097}, 32 And that the passages{H4569} are stopped{H8610}{(H8738)}, and the reeds{H98} they have burned{H8313}{(H8804)} with fire{H784}, and the men{H582} of war{H4421} are affrighted{H926}{(H8738)}. 33 For thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} 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}{(H8687)} her: yet a little while{H4592}, and the time{H6256} of her harvest{H7105} shall come{H935}{(H8804)}. 34 Nebuchadrezzar{H5019} the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} hath devoured{H398}{(H8804)} me, he hath crushed{H2000}{(H8804)} me, he hath made{H3322}{(H8689)} me an empty{H7385} vessel{H3627}, he hath swallowed me up{H1104}{(H8804)} like a dragon{H8577}, he hath filled{H4390}{(H8765)} his belly{H3770} with my delicates{H5730}, he hath cast me out{H1740}{(H8689)}. 35 The violence{H2555} done to me and to my flesh{H7607} be upon Babylon{H894}, shall the inhabitant{H3427}{(H8802)} of Zion{H6726} say{H559}{(H8799)}; and my blood{H1818} upon the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Chaldea{H3778}, shall Jerusalem{H3389} say{H559}{(H8799)}. 36 Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}; Behold, I will plead{H7378}{(H8801)} thy cause{H7379}, and take vengeance{H5358}{(H8765)} for thee{H5360}; and I will dry up{H2717}{(H8689)} her sea{H3220}, and make her springs{H4726} dry{H3001}{(H8689)}. 37 And Babylon{H894} shall become heaps{H1530}, a dwellingplace{H4583} for dragons{H8577}, an astonishment{H8047}, and an hissing{H8322}, without an inhabitant{H3427}{(H8802)}. 38 They shall roar{H7580}{(H8799)} together{H3162} like lions{H3715}: they shall yell{H5286}{(H8804)} as lions{H738}' whelps{H1484}. 39 In their heat{H2527} I will make{H7896}{(H8799)} their feasts{H4960}, and I will make them drunken{H7937}{(H8689)}, that they may rejoice{H5937}{(H8799)}, and sleep{H3462}{(H8804)} a perpetual{H5769} sleep{H8142}, and not wake{H6974}{(H8686)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 40 I will bring them down{H3381}{(H8686)} like lambs{H3733} to the slaughter{H2873}{(H8800)}, like rams{H352} with he goats{H6260}. 41 How is Sheshach{H8347} taken{H3920}{(H8738)}! and how is the praise{H8416} of the whole earth{H776} surprised{H8610}{(H8735)}! how is Babylon{H894} become an astonishment{H8047} among the nations{H1471}! 42 The sea{H3220} is come up{H5927}{(H8804)} upon Babylon{H894}: she is covered{H3680}{(H8738)} with the multitude{H1995} of the waves{H1530} thereof. 43 Her cities{H5892} are a desolation{H8047}, a dry{H6723} land{H776}, and a wilderness{H6160}, a land{H776} wherein no man{H376} dwelleth{H3427}{(H8799)}, neither doth any son{H1121} of man{H120} pass{H5674}{(H8799)} thereby{H2004}. 44 And I will punish{H6485}{(H8804)} Bel{H1078} in Babylon{H894}, and I will bring forth{H3318}{(H8689)} out of his mouth{H6310} that which he hath swallowed up{H1105}: and the nations{H1471} shall not flow together{H5102}{(H8799)} any more unto him: yea, the wall{H2346} of Babylon{H894} shall fall{H5307}{(H8804)}. 45 My people{H5971}, go ye out{H3318}{(H8798)} of the midst{H8432} of her, and deliver{H4422}{(H8761)} ye every man{H376} his soul{H5315} from the fierce{H2740} anger{H639} of the LORD{H3068}. 46 And lest your heart{H3824} faint{H7401}{(H8735)}, and ye fear{H3372}{(H8799)} for the rumour{H8052} that shall be heard{H8085}{(H8737)} in the land{H776}; a rumour{H8052} shall both come{H935}{(H8804)} one year{H8141}, and after{H310} that in another year{H8141} shall come a rumour{H8052}, and violence{H2555} in the land{H776}, ruler{H4910}{(H8802)} against ruler{H4910}{(H8802)}. 47 Therefore, behold, the days{H3117} come{H935}{(H8802)}, that I will do judgment{H6485}{(H8804)} upon the graven images{H6456} of Babylon{H894}: and her whole land{H776} shall be confounded{H954}{(H8799)}, and all her slain{H2491} shall fall{H5307}{(H8799)} in the midst{H8432} of her. 48 Then the heaven{H8064} and the earth{H776}, and all that is therein, shall sing{H7442}{(H8765)} for Babylon{H894}: for the spoilers{H7703}{(H8802)} shall come{H935}{(H8799)} unto her from the north{H6828}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 49 As{H1571} Babylon{H894} hath caused the slain{H2491} of Israel{H3478} to fall{H5307}{(H8800)}, so at Babylon{H894} shall fall{H5307}{(H8804)} the slain{H2491} of all the earth{H776}. 50 Ye that have escaped{H6405} the sword{H2719}, go away{H1980}{(H8798)}, stand not still{H5975}{(H8799)}: remember{H2142}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068} afar off{H7350}, and let Jerusalem{H3389} come{H5927}{(H8799)} into your mind{H3824}. 51 We are confounded{H954}{(H8804)}, because we have heard{H8085}{(H8804)} reproach{H2781}: shame{H3639} hath covered{H3680}{(H8765)} our faces{H6440}: for strangers{H2114}{(H8801)} are come{H935}{(H8804)} into the sanctuaries{H4720} of the LORD'S{H3068} house{H1004}. 52 Wherefore, behold, the days{H3117} come{H935}{(H8802)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, that I will do judgment{H6485}{(H8804)} upon her graven images{H6456}: and through all her land{H776} the wounded{H2491} shall groan{H602}{(H8799)}. 53 Though Babylon{H894} should mount up{H5927}{(H8799)} to heaven{H8064}, and though she should fortify{H1219}{(H8762)} the height{H4791} of her strength{H5797}, yet{H227} from me shall spoilers{H7703}{(H8802)} come{H935}{(H8799)} unto her, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 54 A sound{H6963} of a cry{H2201} cometh from Babylon{H894}, and great{H1419} destruction{H7667} from the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}: 55 Because the LORD{H3068} hath spoiled{H7703}{(H8802)} Babylon{H894}, and destroyed{H6}{(H8765)} out of her the great{H1419} voice{H6963}; when her waves{H1530} do roar{H1993}{(H8804)} like great{H7227} waters{H4325}, a noise{H7588} of their voice{H6963} is uttered{H5414}{(H8738)}: 56 Because the spoiler{H7703}{(H8802)} is come{H935}{(H8804)} upon her, even upon Babylon{H894}, and her mighty men{H1368} are taken{H3920}{(H8738)}, every one of their bows{H7198} is broken{H2865}{(H8765)}: for the LORD{H3068} God{H410} of recompences{H1578} shall surely{H7999}{(H8763)} requite{H7999}{(H8762)}. 57 And I will make drunk{H7937}{(H8689)} 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}{(H8804)} a perpetual{H5769} sleep{H8142}, and not wake{H6974}{(H8686)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the King{H4428}, whose name{H8034} is the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}. 58 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}; The broad{H7342} walls{H2346} of Babylon{H894} shall be utterly{H6209}{(H8771)} broken{H6209}{(H8698)}, and her high{H1364} gates{H8179} shall be burned{H3341}{(H8799)} with fire{H784}; and the people{H5971} shall labour{H3021}{(H8799)} in vain{H7385}, and the folk{H3816} in{H1767} the fire{H784}, and they shall be weary{H3286}{(H8804)}. 59 The word{H1697} which Jeremiah{H3414} the prophet{H5030} commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} Seraiah{H8304} the son{H1121} of Neriah{H5374}, the son{H1121} of Maaseiah{H4271}, when he went{H3212}{(H8800)} with Zedekiah{H6667} the king{H4428} of Judah{H3063} into Babylon{H894} in the fourth{H7243} year{H8141} of his reign{H4427}{(H8800)}. And this Seraiah{H8304} was a quiet{H4496} prince{H8269}. 60 So Jeremiah{H3414} wrote{H3789}{(H8799)} in a{H259} book{H5612} all the evil{H7451} that should come{H935}{(H8799)} upon Babylon{H894}, even all these words{H1697} that are written{H3789}{(H8803)} against Babylon{H894}. 61 And Jeremiah{H3414} said{H559}{(H8799)} to Seraiah{H8304}, When thou comest{H935}{(H8800)} to Babylon{H894}, and shalt see{H7200}{(H8804)}, and shalt read{H7121}{(H8804)} all these words{H1697}; 62 Then shalt thou say{H559}{(H8804)}, O LORD{H3068}, thou hast spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} against this place{H4725}, to cut it off{H3772}{(H8687)}, that none shall remain{H3427}{(H8802)} in it, neither man{H120} nor beast{H929}, but that it shall be desolate{H8077} for ever{H5769}. 63 And it shall be, when thou hast made an end{H3615}{(H8763)} of reading{H7121}{(H8800)} this book{H5612}, that thou shalt bind{H7194}{(H8799)} a stone{H68} to it, and cast{H7993}{(H8689)} it into the midst{H8432} of Euphrates{H6578}: 64 And thou shalt say{H559}{(H8804)}, Thus shall Babylon{H894} sink{H8257}{(H8799)}, and shall not rise{H6965}{(H8799)} from{H6440} the evil{H7451} that I will bring{H935}{(H8688)} upon her: and they shall be weary{H3286}{(H8804)}.

  • Zech 2:7 : 7 Deliver{H4422}{(H8734)} thyself, O{H1945} Zion{H6726}, that dwellest{H3427}{(H8802)} with the daughter{H1323} of Babylon{H894}.
  • Rev 14:8-9 : 8 And{G2532} there followed{G190}{(G5656)} another{G243} angel{G32}, saying{G3004}{(G5723)}, Babylon{G897} is fallen{G4098}{(G5627)}, is fallen{G4098}{(G5627)}, that great{G3173} city{G4172}, because{G3754} she made{G4222} all{G3956} nations{G1484} drink{G4222}{(G5758)} of{G1537} the wine{G3631} of the wrath{G2372} of her{G846} fornication{G4202}. 9 And{G2532} the third{G5154} angel{G32} followed{G190}{(G5656)} them{G846}, saying{G3004}{(G5723)} with{G1722} a loud{G3173} voice{G5456}, If any man{G1536} worship{G4352}{(G5719)} the beast{G2342} and{G2532} his{G846} image{G1504}, and{G2532} receive{G2983}{(G5719)} his mark{G5480} in{G1909} his{G846} forehead{G3359}, or{G2228} in{G1909} his{G846} hand{G5495}, 10 The same{G846}{G2532} shall drink{G4095}{(G5695)} of{G1537} the wine{G3631} of the wrath{G2372} of God{G2316}, which{G3588} is poured out{G2767}{(G5772)} without mixture{G194} into{G1722} the cup{G4221} of his{G846} indignation{G3709}; and{G2532} he shall be tormented{G928}{(G5701)} with{G1722} fire{G4442} and{G2532} brimstone{G2303} in the presence{G1799} of the holy{G40} angels{G32}, and{G2532} in the presence{G1799} of the Lamb{G721}: 11 And{G2532} the smoke{G2586} of their{G846} torment{G929} ascendeth up{G305}{(G5719)} for{G1519} ever{G165} and ever{G165}: and{G2532} they have{G2192}{(G5719)} no{G3756} rest{G372} day{G2250} nor{G2532} night{G3571}, who{G3588} worship{G4352}{(G5723)} the beast{G2342} and{G2532} his{G846} image{G1504}, and{G2532} whosoever{G1536} receiveth{G2983}{(G5719)} the mark{G5480} of his{G846} name{G3686}.
  • Rev 17:1-9 : 1 And{G2532} there came{G2064}{(G5627)} one{G1520} of{G1537} the seven{G2033} angels{G32} which{G3588} had{G2192}{(G5723)} the seven{G2033} vials{G5357}, and{G2532} talked{G2980}{(G5656)} with{G3326} me{G1700}, saying{G3004}{(G5723)} unto me{G3427}, Come hither{G1204}{(G5773)}; I will shew{G1166}{(G5692)} unto thee{G4671} the judgment{G2917} of the great{G3173} whore{G4204} that sitteth{G2521}{(G5740)} upon{G1909} many{G4183} waters{G5204}: 2 With{G3326} whom{G3739} the kings{G935} of the earth{G1093} have committed fornication{G4203}{(G5656)}, and{G2532} the inhabitants{G2730}{(G5723)} of the earth{G1093} have been made drunk{G3184}{(G5681)} with{G1537} the wine{G3631} of her{G846} fornication{G4202}. 3 So{G2532} he carried{G667} me{G3165} away{G667}{(G5656)} in{G1722} the spirit{G4151} into{G1519} the wilderness{G2048}: and{G2532} I saw{G1492}{(G5627)} a woman{G1135} sit{G2521}{(G5740)} upon{G1909} a scarlet coloured{G2847} beast{G2342}, full of{G1073}{(G5723)} names{G3686} of blasphemy{G988}, having{G2192}{(G5723)} seven{G2033} heads{G2776} and{G2532} ten{G1176} horns{G2768}. 4 And{G2532} the woman{G1135} was{G2258}{(G5713)} arrayed{G4016}{(G5772)} in purple{G4209} and{G2532} scarlet colour{G2847}, and{G2532} decked{G5558}{(G5772)} with gold{G5557} and{G2532} precious{G5093} stones{G3037} and{G2532} pearls{G3135}, having{G2192}{(G5723)} a golden{G5552} cup{G4221} in{G1722} her{G846} hand{G5495} full of{G1073}{(G5723)} abominations{G946} and{G2532} filthiness{G168} of her{G846} fornication{G4202}: 5 And{G2532} upon{G1909} her{G846} forehead{G3359} was a name{G3686} written{G1125}{(G5772)}, MYSTERY{G3466}, BABYLON{G897} THE GREAT{G3173}, THE MOTHER{G3384} OF HARLOTS{G4204} AND{G2532} ABOMINATIONS{G946} OF THE EARTH{G1093}. 6 And{G2532} I saw{G1492}{(G5627)} the woman{G1135} drunken{G3184}{(G5723)} with{G1537} the blood{G129} of the saints{G40}, and{G2532} with{G1537} the blood{G129} of the martyrs{G3144} of Jesus{G2424}: and{G2532} when I saw{G1492}{(G5631)} her{G846}, I wondered{G2296}{(G5656)} with great{G3173} admiration{G2295}. 7 And{G2532} the angel{G32} said{G2036}{(G5627)} unto me{G3427}, Wherefore{G1302} didst thou marvel{G2296}{(G5656)}?
