50:1 The word 1697 that the LORD 3068 spake 16968765 against Babylon 894 [and] against the land 776 of the Chaldeans 3778 by 3027 Jeremiah 3414 the prophet 5030.(by…: Heb. by the hand of Jeremiah)
50:3 For out of the north 6828 there cometh up 59278804 a nation 1471 against her, which shall make 78968799 her land 776 desolate 8047, and none shall dwell 34278802 therein: they shall remove 51108804, they shall depart 19808804, both man 120 and beast 929.
50:5 They shall ask 75928799 the way 1870 to Zion 6726 with their faces 6440 thitherward 2008, [saying], Come 9358798, and let us join 38678738 ourselves to the LORD 3068 in a perpetual 5769 covenant 1285 [that] shall not be forgotten 79118735.
50:6 My people 5971 hath been lost 68802 sheep 6629: their shepherds 74628802 have caused them to go astray 85828689, they have turned them away 7725879086757726 [on] the mountains 2022: they have gone 19808804 from mountain 2022 to hill 1389, they have forgotten 79118804 their restingplace 7258.(restingplace: Heb. place to lie down in)
50:7 All that found 46728802 them have devoured 3988804 them: and their adversaries 6862 said 5598804, We offend 8168799 not, because they have sinned 23988804 against the LORD 3068, the habitation 5116 of justice 6664, even the LORD 3068, the hope 4723 of their fathers 1.
50:9 For, lo, I will raise 57828688 and cause to come up 59278688 against Babylon 894 an assembly 6951 of great 1419 nations 1471 from the north 6828 country 776: and they shall set themselves in array 61868804 against her; from thence she shall be taken 39208735: their arrows 2671 [shall be] as of a mighty 1368 expert man 79198688867679218688; none shall return 77258799 in vain 7387.(expert…: or, destroyer)
50:11 Because ye were glad 80558799, because ye rejoiced 59378799, O ye destroyers 81548802 of mine heritage 5159, because ye are grown fat 63358799 as the heifer 5697 at grass 1877867617588801, and bellow 66708799 as bulls 47;(fat: Heb. big, or, corpulent)(bellow…: or, neigh as steeds)
50:12 Your mother 517 shall be sore 3966 confounded 9548804; she that bare 32058802 you shall be ashamed 26598804: behold, the hindermost 319 of the nations 1471 [shall be] a wilderness 4057, a dry land 6723, and a desert 6160.
50:13 Because of the wrath 7110 of the LORD 3068 it shall not be inhabited 34278799, but it shall be wholly desolate 8077: every one that goeth 56748802 by Babylon 894 shall be astonished 80748799, and hiss 83198799 at all her plagues 4347.
50:18 Therefore thus saith 5598804 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635, the God 430 of Israel 3478; Behold, I will punish 64858802 the king 4428 of Babylon 894 and his land 776, as I have punished 64858804 the king 4428 of Assyria 804.
50:20 In those days 3117, and in that time 6256, saith 50028803 the LORD 3068, the iniquity 5771 of Israel 3478 shall be sought for 12458792, and [there shall be] none; and the sins 2403 of Judah 3063, and they shall not be found 46728735: for I will pardon 55458799 them whom I reserve 76048686.
50:21 Go up 59278798 against the land 776 of Merathaim 4850, [even] against it, and against the inhabitants 34278802 of Pekod 6489: waste 27178798 and utterly destroy 27638687 after 310 them, saith 50028803 the LORD 3068, and do 62138798 according to all that I have commanded 66808765 thee.(of Merathaim: or, of the rebels)(Pekod: or, Visitation)
50:22 A sound 6963 of battle 4421 [is] in the land 776, and of great 1419 destruction 7667.
50:23 How is the hammer 6360 of the whole earth 776 cut asunder 14388738 and broken 76658735! how is Babylon 894 become a desolation 8047 among the nations 1471!
50:24 I have laid a snare 33698804 for thee, and thou art also taken 39208738, O Babylon 894, and thou wast not aware 30458804: thou art found 46728738, and also caught 86108738, because thou hast striven 16248694 against the LORD 3068.
50:25 The LORD 3068 hath opened 66058804 his armoury 214, and hath brought forth 33188686 the weapons 3627 of his indignation 2195: for this [is] the work 4399 of the Lord 136 GOD 3069 of hosts 6635 in the land 776 of the Chaldeans 3778.
50:26 Come 9358798 against her from the utmost border 7093, open 66058798 her storehouses 3965: cast her up 55498798 as heaps 6194, and destroy her utterly 27638685: let nothing of her be left 7611.(from…: Heb. from the end)(cast…: or, tread her)
50:28 The voice 6963 of them that flee 51278801 and escape out 6405 of the land 776 of Babylon 894, to declare 50468687 in Zion 6726 the vengeance 5360 of the LORD 3068 our God 430, the vengeance 5360 of his temple 1964.
50:29 Call together 80858685 the archers 7228 against Babylon 894: all ye that bend 18698802 the bow 7198, camp 25838798 against it round about 5439; let none thereof escape 6413: recompense 79998761 her according to her work 6467; according to all that she hath done 62138804, do 62138798 unto her: for she hath been proud 21028804 against the LORD 3068, against the Holy One 6918 of Israel 3478.
50:31 Behold, I [am] against thee, [O thou] most proud 2087, saith 50028803 the Lord 136 GOD 3069 of hosts 6635: for thy day 3117 is come 9358802, the time 6256 [that] I will visit 64858804 thee.(most…: Heb. pride)
50:32 And the most proud 2087 shall stumble 37828804 and fall 53078804, and none shall raise him up 69658688: and I will kindle 33418689 a fire 784 in his cities 5892, and it shall devour 3988804 all round about 5439 him.(the…: Heb. pride)
50:35 A sword 2719 [is] upon the Chaldeans 3778, saith 50028803 the LORD 3068, and upon the inhabitants 34278802 of Babylon 894, and upon her princes 8269, and upon her wise 2450 [men].
50:36 A sword 2719 [is] upon the liars 907; and they shall dote 29738738: a sword 2719 [is] upon her mighty men 1368; and they shall be dismayed 28658804.(liars: or, chief stays: Heb. bars)
50:37 A sword 2719 [is] upon their horses 5483, and upon their chariots 7393, and upon all the mingled people 6153 that [are] in the midst 8432 of her; and they shall become as women 802: a sword 2719 [is] upon her treasures 214; and they shall be robbed 9628795.
50:38 A drought 2721 [is] upon her waters 4325; and they shall be dried up 30018804: for it [is] the land 776 of graven images 6456, and they are mad 19848704 upon [their] idols 367.
50:39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert 6728 with the wild beasts of the islands 338 shall dwell 34278799 [there], and the owls 13233284 shall dwell 34278804 therein: and it shall be no more inhabited 34278799 for ever 5331; neither shall it be dwelt 79318799 in from generation 1755 to generation 1755.
50:40 As God 430 overthrew 4114 Sodom 5467 and Gomorrah 6017 and the neighbour 7934 [cities] thereof, saith 50028803 the LORD 3068; [so] shall no man 376 abide 34278799 there, neither shall any son 1121 of man 120 dwell 14818799 therein.
50:41 Behold, a people 5971 shall come 9358802 from the north 6828, and a great 1419 nation 1471, and many 7227 kings 4428 shall be raised up 57828735 from the coasts 3411 of the earth 776.
50:42 They shall hold 23888686 the bow 7198 and the lance 3591: they [are] cruel 394, and will not shew mercy 73558762: their voice 6963 shall roar 19938799 like the sea 3220, and they shall ride 73928799 upon horses 5483, [every one] put in array 61868803, like a man 376 to the battle 4421, against thee, O daughter 1323 of Babylon 894.
50:44 Behold, he shall come up 59278799 like a lion 738 from the swelling 1347 of Jordan 3383 unto the habitation 5116 of the strong 386: but I will make 73230 them suddenly 72808686 run away 73238686867573238799 from her: and who [is] a chosen 9778803 [man, that] I may appoint 64858799 over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time 32598686? and who [is] that shepherd 74628802 that will stand 59758799 before 6440 me?(appoint me…: or, convent me to plead?)
50:45 Therefore hear 80858798 ye the counsel 6098 of the LORD 3068, that he hath taken 32898804 against Babylon 894; and his purposes 4284, that he hath purposed 28038804 against the land 776 of the Chaldeans 3778: Surely the least 6810 of the flock 6629 shall draw them out 54988799: surely he shall make [their] habitation 5116 desolate 80748686 with them.
