Jeremiah 51:1-4

51:1 The Lord says,

“I will cause a destructive wind to blow

against Babylon and the people who inhabit Babylonia.

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 they come against her from every direction,

when it is time to destroy her.

51:3 Do not give her archers time to string their bows

or to put on their coats of armor.

Do not spare any of her young men.

Completely destroy her whole army.

51:4 Let them fall slain in the land of Babylonia,

mortally wounded in the streets of her cities.

Jeremiah 51:11

51:11 “Sharpen your arrows!

Fill your quivers!

The Lord will arouse a spirit of hostility in the kings of Media.

For he intends to destroy Babylonia.

For that is how the Lord will get his revenge –

how he will get his revenge for the Babylonians’ destruction of his temple.

Jeremiah 51:48

51:48 Then heaven and earth and all that is in them

will sing for joy over Babylon.

For destroyers from the north will attack it,”

says the Lord.
