Berean Standard Bible
Praise to the Victorious God
(Jeremiah 51:15–19)
1O LORDH3068, YouH859 are my GodH430!I will exalt YouH7311;I will praiseH3034 Your nameH8034.ForH3588 You have workedH6213 wondersH6382—plansH6098 formed long agoH7350—in perfect faithfulnessH530H544.2IndeedH3588, You have madeH7760 the cityH5892 a heap of rubbleH1530,the fortifiedH1219 townH7151 a ruinH4654.The fortressH759 of strangersH2114 is a cityH5892 no more;it will neverH5769H3808 be rebuiltH1129.3ThereforeH5921H3651, a strongH5794 peopleH5971 will honor YouH3513.The citiesH7151 of ruthlessH6184 nationsH1471 will revere YouH3372.
4ForH3588 You have beenH1961 a refugeH4581 for the poorH1800,a strongholdH4581 for the needyH34 in distressH6862,a refugeH4268 from the stormH2230,a shadeH6738 from the heatH2721.ForH3588 the breathH7307 of the ruthlessH6184is like rainH2230 against a wallH7023,5like heatH2721 in a dry landH6724.You subdueH3665 the uproarH7588 of foreignersH2114.As the shadeH6738 of a cloudH5645 cools the heatH2721,so the songH2158 of the ruthlessH6184 is silencedH6031.
6On thisH2088 mountainH2022 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635will prepareH6213 a lavishH8081 banquetH4960 for allH3605 the peoplesH5971,a feastH4960 of aged wineH8105, of choice meatH8081H4229,of finelyH2212 aged wineH8105.7On thisH2088H6440 mountainH2022 He will swallow upH1104the shroudH3874 that enfoldsH3875H5921 allH3605 peoplesH5971,the sheetH4541 that coversH5259H5921 allH3605 nationsH1471;8He will swallow upH1104 deathH4194 foreverH5331.1The LordH136 GODH3069 will wipe awayH4229 the tearsH1832 fromH5921 everyH3605 faceH64402and removeH5493 the disgraceH2781 of His peopleH5971fromH5921 the wholeH3605 earthH776.ForH3588 the LORDH3068 has spokenH1696.9And in thatH1931 dayH3117 it will be saidH559, “SurelyH2009 thisH2088 is our GodH430;we have waitedH6960 for Him, and He has saved usH3467.ThisH2088 is the LORDH3068 for whom we have waitedH6960.Let us rejoiceH1523 and be gladH8055 in His salvationH3444.”
10ForH3588 the handH3027 of the LORDH3068will restH5117 on thisH2088 mountainH2022.But MoabH4124 will be trampledH1758 in his placeH8478as strawH4963H4325 is troddenH1758 into the dung pileH4087.11He will spread outH6566 his handsH3027 within itH7130,asH834 a swimmerH7811 spreadsH6566 his arms to swimH7811.His prideH1346 will be brought lowH8213,despiteH59733 the skillH698 of his handsH3027.12The high-walledH4869H2346 fortressH4013 will be brought downH7817H8213,castH5060 to the groundH776, intoH5704 the dustH6083.
