The Utter Destruction of Babylon
1 Thus says the Lord:
“Behold, I will raise up against aBabylon,
Against those who dwell in1 Leb Kamai,
bA destroying wind.
“Behold, I will raise up against aBabylon,
Against those who dwell in1 Leb Kamai,
bA destroying wind.
2 And I will send awinnowers to Babylon,
Who shall winnow her and empty her land.
bFor in the day of doom
They shall be against her all around.
Who shall winnow her and empty her land.
bFor in the day of doom
They shall be against her all around.
3 Against her alet the archer bend his bow,
And lift himself up against her in his armor.
Do not spare her young men;
bUtterly destroy all her army.
And lift himself up against her in his armor.
Do not spare her young men;
bUtterly destroy all her army.
