Jeremiah 51:25-27

Good News Translation

²⁵ Babylonia, you are like a mountain that destroys the whole world, but I, the Lord, am your enemy. I will take hold of you, level you to the ground, and leave you in ashes. ²⁶ None of the stones from your ruins will ever be used again for building. You will be like a desert forever. I, the Lord, have spoken.

²⁷ “Give the signal to attack! Blow the trumpet so that the nations can hear! Prepare the nations for war against Babylonia! Tell the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz to attack. Appoint an officer to lead the attack. Bring up the horses like a swarm of locusts.
