“Come against her from the farthest border.Open her storehouses.Cast her up as heaps.Destroy her utterly.Let nothing of her be left.”
Jeremiah 50:26 (WEB)
Context Reading
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. 26Come against her from the farthest border.Open her storehouses.Cast her up as heaps.Destroy her utterly.Let nothing of her be left. 27Kill all her bulls.Let them go down to the slaughter.Woe to them! For their day has come,the time of their visitation. 28Listen to those who flee and escape out of the land of Babylon,to declare in Zion the vengeance of Yahweh our God,the vengeance of his temple.
