1 - The LORD says:"Behold, I will raise up against Babylon,and against those who dwell in Lebkamai, a destroying wind.

2 - I will send to Babylon strangers, who will winnow her.They will empty her land;for in the day of trouble they will be against her all around.

3 - Against him who bends, let the archer bend his bow,also against him who lifts himself up in his coat of mail.Don't spare her young men!Utterly destroy all her army!

4 - They will fall down slain in the land of the Chaldeans,and thrust through in her streets.

5 - For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah, by his God,by the LORD of Hosts;though their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel.
