‘A scorching wind will sweep down
from the hilltops in the desert on

49:32 Their camels will be taken as plunder.
Their vast herds will be taken as spoil.

those desert peoples who cut their hair short at the temples.
I will bring disaster against them
from every direction,” says the Lord.
51:2 I will send people to winnow Babylonia like a wind blowing away chaff.
They will winnow her and strip her land bare.
This will happen when
when it is time to destroy her.
