1. The word that the Lord spoke concerning Babylon, concerning the land of the Kasdim, by Jeremiah the prophet.
2. “Declare amongst the nations and publish,and set up a standard;publish, and don’t conceal:say, ‘Babylon has been taken,Bel is disappointed,Merodach is dismayed!Her images are disappointed.Her idols are dismayed.’
3. For a nation comes up out of the north against her,which will make her land desolate,and no one will dwell in it.They have fled.They are gone,both man and animal.
