Jeremiah 51:14-27

14The LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 has swornH7650 by HimselfH5315:

“SurelyH3588 H518 I will fill you upH4390 with menH120 as with locustsH3218,and they will shout in triumphH6030 H1959 over youH5921.”

15The LORD madeH6213 the earthH776 by His powerH3581;He establishedH3559 the worldH8398 by His wisdomH2451and stretched outH5186 the heavensH8064 by His understandingH8394.16When He thundersH6963 H5414,the watersH4325 in the heavensH8064 roarH1995;He causes the cloudsH5387 to riseH5927from the endsH7097 of the earthH776.He generatesH6213 the lightningH1300 with the rainH4306and brings forthH3318 the windH7307 from His storehousesH214.

17EveryH3605 manH120 is senselessH1197 and devoid of knowledgeH1847;everyH3605 goldsmithH6884 is put to shameH954 by his idolsH6459.ForH3588 his molten imagesH5262 are a fraudH8267,and there is noH3808 breathH7307 in them.18TheyH1992 are worthlessH1892, a workH4639 to be mockedH8595.In the timeH6256 of their punishmentH6486 they will perishH6.19The PortionH2506 of JacobH3290 is notH3808 like theseH428,forH3588 HeH1931 is the MakerH3335 of all thingsH3605,and of the tribeH7626 of His inheritanceH5159—the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 is His nameH8034.

20“YouH859 are My war clubH4661,My weaponH3627 for battleH4421.With you I shatterH5310 nationsH1471;with you I bring kingdomsH4467 to ruinH7843.21With you I shatterH5310 the horseH5483 and riderH7392;with you I shatterH5310 the chariotH7393 and driverH7392.22With you I shatterH5310 manH376 and womanH802;with you I shatterH5310 the old manH2205 and the youthH5288;with you I shatterH5310 the young manH970 and the maidenH1330.23With you I shatterH5310 the shepherdH7462 and his flockH5739;with you I shatterH5310 the farmerH406 and his oxenH6776;with you I shatterH5310 the governorsH6346 and officialsH5461.

24Before your very eyesH5869 I will repayH7999BabylonH894 and allH3605 the dwellersH3427 of ChaldeaH3778 1for allH3605 the evilH7451 they have doneH6213 in ZionH6726,”declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.25“BeholdH2005, I am against youH413,O destroyingH4889 mountainH2022,you who devastateH7843 the wholeH3605 earthH776,declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.I will stretch outH5186 My handH3027 against youH5921;I will roll youH1556 overH4480 the cliffsH5553and turn youH5414 into a charredH8316 mountainH2022.26No oneH3808 shall retrieveH3947 from youH4480 a cornerstoneH68 H6438or a foundationH4146 stoneH68,becauseH3588 you will becomeH1961 desolateH8077 foreverH5769,”declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.27“RaiseH5375 a bannerH5251 in the landH776!BlowH8628 the ram’s hornH7782 among the nationsH1471!PrepareH6942 the nationsH1471 against herH5921.SummonH8085 the kingdomsH4467 against herH5921—AraratH780, MinniH4508, and AshkenazH813.AppointH6485 a captainH2951 against herH5921;bring upH5927 horsesH5483 like swarmingH5569 locustsH3218.
