Yahweh’s message to Israelis in Bavel

Yir 51:50–53

51:50 Yahweh’s message to Israelis in Bavel

50 You all who escaped from being killed in war, go away—don’t stay still.

Remember Yahweh even though you’re all far away.

≈ Start bringing Yerushalem (Jerusalem) to mind.

51 We’re ashamed because we’ve heard insults—

≈ our feeling of being disgraced can be seen on our faces,

because foreigners have entered the sacred places in Yahweh’s house.

52 So Yahweh declares:

Listen, the time is coming when I’ll punish Bavel’s (Babylon’s) carved idols,

and their wounded people will groan across that entire region.

53 Yes, even if Bavel built tall towers or fortified their highest fortresses,

destroyers that I’ve sent would still go there.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.
