Jeremiah 51:7-11
Jeremiah 51:7
Babylon has been a golden cup in the hand of the Lord, Intoxicating all the earth. The nations have drunk of her wine; Therefore the nations are going insane.
Jeremiah 51:8
Suddenly Babylon has fallen and been broken; Wail over her! Bring balm for her pain; Perhaps she may be healed.
Jeremiah 51:9
We applied healing to Babylon, but she was not healed; Abandon her and let’s each go to his own country, For her judgment has reached to heaven And it rises to the clouds.
Jeremiah 51:10
The Lord has brought about our vindication; Come and let’s recount in Zion The work of the Lord our God!
Jeremiah 51:11
Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers! The Lord has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes, Because His plan is against Babylon to destroy it; For it is the vengeance of the Lord, vengeance for His temple.
