Jeremiah 51:31
At one end - Cyrus entered the city at one end, by the channel of the river, which he had drained, and surprized Belshazzar in the midst of his feast.
29 And the land will tremble and sorrow;
For every apurpose of the Lord shall be performed against Babylon,
bTo make the land of Babylon a desolation without inhabitant.
For every apurpose of the Lord shall be performed against Babylon,
bTo make the land of Babylon a desolation without inhabitant.
30 The mighty men of Babylon have ceased fighting,
They have remained in their strongholds;
Their might has failed,
aThey became like women;
They have burned her dwelling places,
bThe bars of her gate are broken.
They have remained in their strongholds;
Their might has failed,
aThey became like women;
They have burned her dwelling places,
bThe bars of her gate are broken.
31 aOne runner will run to meet another,
And one messenger to meet another,
To show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on all sides;
And one messenger to meet another,
To show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on all sides;
33 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel:
“The daughter of Babylon is alike a threshing floor
When bit is time to thresh her;
Yet a little while
cAnd the time of her harvest will come.”
“The daughter of Babylon is alike a threshing floor
When bit is time to thresh her;
Yet a little while
cAnd the time of her harvest will come.”
