58 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly abroken,
And her high gates shall be burned with fire;
bThe people will labor in vain,
And the nations, because of the fire;
And they shall be weary.”
“The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly abroken,
And her high gates shall be burned with fire;
bThe people will labor in vain,
And the nations, because of the fire;
And they shall be weary.”
Jeremiah’s Command to Seraiah
59 The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of aNeriah, the son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah to Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And Seraiah was the quartermaster.
60 So Jeremiah awrote in a book all the evil that would come upon Babylon, all these words that are written against Babylon.
61 And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, “When you arrive in Babylon and see it, and read all these words,
62 then you shall say, ‘O Lord, You have spoken against this place to cut it off, so that anone shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but it shall be desolate forever.’
