Context Reading
21“Go up against the land of Merathaim,even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod.Kill and utterly destroy after them,” says Yahweh,“and do according to all that I have commanded you. 22A sound of battle is in the land,and of great destruction. 23How the hammer of the whole earth is cut apart and broken!How Babylon has become a desolation among the nations! 24I have laid a snare for you,and you are also taken, Babylon,and you weren’t aware.You are found,and also caught,because you have fought against Yahweh. 25Yahweh has opened his armory,and has brought out the weapons of his indignation;for the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, has a work to do in the land of the Chaldeans.
