“Don’t let your heart faint.Don’t fear for the news that will be heard in the land.For news will come one year,and after that in another year news will come,and violence in the land,ruler against ruler.”
Jeremiah 51:46 (WEB)
Context Reading
44I will execute judgment on Bel in Babylon,and I will bring out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up.The nations will not flow any more to him.Yes, the wall of Babylon will fall. 45“My people, go away from the middle of her,and each of you save yourselves from Yahweh’s fierce anger. 46Don’t let your heart faint.Don’t fear for the news that will be heard in the land.For news will come one year,and after that in another year news will come,and violence in the land,ruler against ruler. 47Therefore behold, the days come that I will execute judgment on the engraved images of Babylon;and her whole land will be confounded.All her slain will fall in the middle of her. 48Then the heavens and the earth,and all that is therein,will sing for joy over Babylon;for the destroyers will come to her from the north,” says Yahweh.
