Jeremiah 51:1-4

1The Lord says this: ‘I will send an enemy to destroy Babylon and the people of Babylonia. It will come like a strong wind that blows them away.

2I will send foreign soldiers to remove them from their land, like a wind that blows chaff away. They will make the land become empty. On the day of that great trouble, they will attack Babylonia from all directions.

3Do not give Babylon's soldiers time to pick up their weapons! Do not give them time to put on their armour! Kill all their young men. Completely destroy their whole army.

4Their dead bodies will lie on the ground all over Babylonia and in the streets of the city.
