Jeremiah 51:12 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 51:12

10 The Lord has ^arevealed our righteousness.
Come and let us ^bdeclare in Zion the work of the Lord our God.

11 ^aMake¹ the arrows bright!
Gather the shields!
^bThe Lord has raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes.
^cFor His plan is against Babylon to destroy it,
Because it is ^dthe vengeance of the Lord,
The vengeance for His temple.

12 ^aSet up the standard on the walls of Babylon;
Make the guard strong,
Set up the watchmen,
Prepare the ambushes.
For the Lord has both devised and done
What He spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.

13 ^aO you who dwell by many waters,
Abundant in treasures,
Your end has come,
The measure of your covetousness.

14 ^aThe Lord of hosts has sworn by Himself:
“Surely I will fill you with men, ^bas with locusts,
And they shall lift ^cup a shout against you.”
