Jeremiah 51:31 in context
- 29And the land trembleth and is in pain; for the purposes of Jehovah against Babylon do stand, to make the land of Babylon a desolation, without inhabitant.
- 30The mighty men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they remain in their strongholds; their might hath failed; they are become as women: her dwelling-places are set on fire; her bars are broken.
- 31One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on every quarter:
- 32and the passages are seized, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
- 33For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing-floor at the time when it is trodden; yet a little while, and the time of harvest shall come for her.
