Jeremiah 51:48-56
48And the heavensH8064 and the earthH776, and all that is therein, shall shoutH7442 aloudH7442 over BabylonH894; for out of the northH6828 the spoilers shall comeH935 against her, saith Jehovah.
49As BabylonH894 caused the slainH2491 of IsraelH3478 to fallH5307, so at BabylonH894 shall fallH5307 the slainH2491 of all the earthH776.
50Ye that have escaped the swordH2719, goH1980, standH5975 not stillH5975: rememberH2142 Jehovah from afarH7350, and let JerusalemH3389 comeH1980 into your mind.
51— We are putH954 to shameH954, for we have heardH8085 reproachH2781; confusion hath coveredH3680 our faceH6440: for strangersH2114 are comeH935 into the sanctuariesH4720 of Jehovah's houseH1004.
52— ThereforeH3651 behold, daysH3117 comeH935, saith Jehovah, that I will punishH6485 her graven images; and throughout her landH776 the woundedH2491 shall groanH602.
53Though BabylonH894 should mount up to the heavensH8064, and though she should fortifyH1219 the heightH4791 of her strengthH5797, yet from me shall spoilers comeH935 unto her, saith Jehovah.
54The soundH6963 of a cryH2201 [cometh] from BabylonH894, and greatH1419 destructionH7667 from the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778;
55for Jehovah spoileth BabylonH894, and he will destroyH6 out of her the greatH1419 voiceH6963; and their waves roarH1993 like greatH1419 watersH4325, the noise of their voiceH6963 resoundeth.
56For the spoiler is comeH935 against her, against BabylonH894, and her mightyH1368 menH1368 are takenH3920; their bowsH7198 are broken in pieces; for Jehovah, the 1GodH410 of recompences, will certainly requite.
