Jeremiah 50:1-3 ▼

1 This is the word the LORD spoke about Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, through the prophet Jeremiah:

2 Announce to the nations; proclaim and raise up a signal flag; proclaim, and hide nothing. Say, “Babylon is captured; Bel is put to shame; Marduk is terrified.” Her idols are put to shame; her false gods, devastated.

3 For a nation from the north will attack her; it will make her land desolate. No one will be living in it — both people and animals will escape.
