24:051:002 And will send unto Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and
shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be
against her round about.
24:051:003 Against him that bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and
against him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine: and
spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.
24:051:004 Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streets.
24:051:005 For Israel hath not been forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of
the LORD of hosts; though their land was filled with sin
against the Holy One of Israel.
24:051:006 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his
soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of
the LORD's vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.
24:051:007 Babylon hath been a golden cup in the LORD's hand, that made
all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine;
therefore the nations are mad.
24:051:008 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.
24:051:009 We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.
24:051:010 The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.
24:051:011 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath
raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device
is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance
of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
