Jeremiah 50:2-10
2DeclareH5046 ye among the nationsH1471, and publishH8085, and set upH5375 a standardH5251; publishH8085, and concealH3582 not: sayH559, BabylonH894 is takenH3920, BelH1078 is confoundedH3001, MerodachH4781 is broken in piecesH2865; her idolsH6091 are confoundedH3001, her imagesH1544 are broken in piecesH2865.1 3For out of the northH6828 there cometh upH5927 a nationH1471 against her, which shall makeH7896 her landH776 desolateH8047, and none shall dwellH3427 therein: they shall removeH5110, they shall departH1980, both manH120 and beastH929.
4In those daysH3117, and in that timeH6256, saithH5002 YhwhH3068, the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall comeH935, they and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 togetherH3162, goingH1980 and weepingH1058: they shall goH3212, and seekH1245 YhwhH3068 their GodH430. 5They shall askH7592 the wayH1870 to ZionH6726 with their facesH6440 thitherwardH2008, saying, ComeH935, and let us joinH3867 ourselves to YhwhH3068 in a perpetualH5769 covenantH1285 that shall not be forgottenH7911. 6My peopleH5971 hath been lostH6 sheepH6629: their shepherdsH7462 have caused them to go astrayH8582, they have turned them awayH7726H7725 on the mountainsH2022: they have goneH1980 from mountainH2022 to hillH1389, they have forgottenH7911 their restingplaceH7258.2 7All that foundH4672 them have devouredH398 them: and their adversariesH6862 saidH559, We offendH816 not, because they have sinnedH2398 against YhwhH3068, the habitationH5116 of justiceH6664, even YhwhH3068, the hopeH4723 of their fathersH1. 8RemoveH5110 out of the midstH8432 of BabylonH894, and go forthH3318 out of the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778, and be as the he goatsH6260 beforeH6440 the flocksH6629.
9For, lo, I will raiseH5782 and cause to come upH5927 against BabylonH894 an assemblyH6951 of greatH1419 nationsH1471 from the northH6828 countryH776: and they shall set themselves in arrayH6186 against her; from thence she shall be takenH3920: their arrowsH2671 shall be as of a mightyH1368 expert manH7921H7919; none shall returnH7725 in vainH7387.3 10And ChaldeaH3778 shall be a spoilH7998: all that spoilH7997 her shall be satisfiedH7646, saithH5002 YhwhH3068.
