Jeremiah 51:15-26

15“He made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.

16When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar; he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth. He sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses.

17“Everyone is senseless and without knowledge; every goldsmith is shamed by his idols. The images he makes are a fraud; they have no breath in them.

18They are worthless, the objects of mockery; when their judgment comes, they will perish.

19He who is the Portion of Jacob is not like these, for he is the Maker of all things, including the people of his inheritance— the Lord Almighty is his name.

20“You are my war club, my weapon for battle— with you I shatter nations, with you I destroy kingdoms,

21with you I shatter horse and rider, with you I shatter chariot and driver,

22with you I shatter man and woman, with you I shatter old man and youth, with you I shatter young man and young woman,

23with you I shatter shepherd and flock, with you I shatter farmer and oxen, with you I shatter governors and officials.

24“Before your eyes I will repay Babylon and all who live in Babylonia for all the wrong they have done in Zion,” declares the Lord.

25“I am against you, you destroying mountain, you who destroy the whole earth,” declares the Lord. “I will stretch out my hand against you, roll you off the cliffs, and make you a burned-out mountain.

26No rock will be taken from you for a cornerstone, nor any stone for a foundation, for you will be desolate forever,” declares the Lord.
