Context
50:44 “A lion coming up from the thick undergrowth along the Jordan scatters the sheep in the pastureland around it. So too I will chase the Babylonians off of their land. Then I will appoint over it whomever I choose . For there is no one like me . There is no one who can call me to account . There is no ruler that can stand up against me.
50:45 So listen to what I, the Lord , have planned against Babylon , what I intend to do to the people who inhabit the land of Babylonia . Their little ones will be dragged off . I will completely destroy their land because of what they have done.
50:46 The people of the earth will quake when they hear Babylon has been captured . Her cries of anguish will be heard by the other nations .”
