Jeremiah 51:1 - The Message

There’s more. God says more: "Watch this:
   I’m whipping up
A death-dealing hurricane against Babylon—’Hurricane Persia’—
   against all who live in that perverse land.
I’m sending a cleanup crew into Babylon.
   They’ll clean the place out from top to bottom.
When they get through there’ll be nothing left of her
   worth taking or talking about.
They won’t miss a thing.
   A total and final Doomsday!
Fighters will fight with everything they’ve got.
   It’s no-holds-barred.
They will spare nothing and no one.
   It’s final and wholesale destruction—the end!
Babylon littered with the wounded,
   streets piled with corpses.
It turns out that Israel and Judah
   are not widowed after all.
As their God, God-of-the-Angel-Armies, I am still alive and well,
   committed to them even though
They filled their land with sin
   against Israel’s most Holy God.
