Jeremiah 51:4

Read in context

Jeremiah 51:2–6 · Berean Standard Bible

2 I will send strangers to Babylon to winnow her and empty her land; for they will come against her from every side in her day of disaster.

3 Do not let the archer bend his bow or put on his armor. Do not spare her young men; devote all her army to destruction!

4 And they will fall slain in the land of the Chaldeans, and pierced through in her streets.

5 For Israel and Judah have not been abandoned by their God, the LORD of Hosts, though their land is full of guilt before the Holy One of Israel.”

6 Flee from Babylon! Escape with your lives! Do not be destroyed in her punishment. For this is the time of the LORD’s vengeance; He will pay her what she deserves.
