21:18 The sword of Babylon’s king

18Then Yahweh gave me another message: 19“Now humanity’s child, assign two roads for the sword of Babylon’s king to come on. The two roads will start in the same land, and a signpost will mark one of them as leading to a city. 20Mark one road for the Babylonian army to come to Rabbah, the city of the Ammonites. Mark the other to lead the army to Yehudah and the fortified city of Yerushalem, 21because the Babylonian king will stop at the crossroads, at the junction, in order to practice divination. He’ll shake some arrows and ask direction from some idols, and he’ll examine a liver. 22With his right hand he’ll take the sign for Yerushalem: to set battering rams against it, to open his mouth to order the slaughter, to sound a war cry, to set battering rams against the gates, to build a ramp, and to erect siege towers. 23From the perspective of those in Yerushalem, it would seem to be a pointless sign as they’d made a treaty with the Babylonians, but the king will accuse them of violating their treaty so he can besiege them.

24Therefore the master Yahweh says this: You’ve caused your guilt to be noticed by revealing your disobedience, so that you sins will be obvious through all your actions. Because you’ve done that, you’ll be taken by force. 25As for you, profane and wicked ruler of Yisrael, your time of going against me has now ended and your day of punishment has come. 26The master Yahweh instructs you: Remove the turban and take off the crown. Things will no longer be the same. I’ll give power to those who had none, and disgrace those who had power. 27A ruin. A ruin. Yes, I’ll make it a ruin. It won’t be restored until the one comes who is assigned to execute judgment.
