Jeremiah 51:13 in context

  1. 11“Make the arrows sharp!
    Hold the shields firmly!
    Yahweh has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes,
    because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it;
    for it is the vengeance of Yahweh,
    the vengeance of his temple.
  2. 12Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon!
    Make the watch strong!
    Set the watchmen,
    and prepare the ambushes;
    for Yahweh has both purposed and done
    that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
  3. 13You who dwell on many waters, abundant in treasures,
    your end has come, the measure of your covetousness.
  4. 14Yahweh of Armies has sworn by himself, saying,
    ‘Surely I will fill you with men,
    as with the canker worm;
    and they will lift up a shout against you.’
  5. 15“He has made the earth by his power.
    He has established the world by his wisdom.
    By his understanding he has stretched out the heavens.
