The LORD’s word that he will raise up a destroying wind against Babylon, and the call to flee out of the middle of Babylon
멸망시키는 자의 마음을 일으켜 바벨론을 치리라는 여호와의 말씀과 바벨론에서 도망하라는 말
Jeremiah 51:1–14: The LORD says: “Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against those who dwell in Lebkamai, a destroying wind. 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. 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! They will fall down slain in the land of the Chaldeans, and thrust through in her streets. For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah, by his God, by the LORD of Armies; though their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel. Flee out of the middle of Babylon! Everyone save his own life! Don’t be cut off in her iniquity, for it is the time of the LORD’s vengeance. He will give to her a recompense. Babylon has been a golden cup in the LORD’s hand, who made all the earth drunk. The nations have drunk of her wine; therefore the nations have gone mad. Babylon has suddenly fallen and been destroyed! Wail for her! Take balm for her pain. Perhaps she may be healed. We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed. Forsake her, and let’s each go into his own country; for her judgment reaches to heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies. ‘The LORD has produced our righteousness. Come, and let’s declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.’ Make the arrows sharp! Hold the shields firmly! The LORD has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes, because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it; for it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple. Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon! Make the watch strong! Set the watchmen, and prepare the ambushes; for the LORD has both purposed and done that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon. You who dwell on many waters, abundant in treasures, your end has come, the measure of your covetousness. The LORD of Armies has sworn by himself, saying, ‘Surely I will fill you with men, as with locusts, and they will lift up a shout against you.’” WEB does not close at 51:14 the quotation it opens at 51:1: it closes it only at 51:24, and opens its marks again at the new paragraphs of 51:6, 51:9 and 51:11, which this summary leaves out. The Korean Revised Version closes the LORD’s words at the end of 51:4 (하시도다), gives 51:5–13 with no word naming who speaks, and gives 51:14 as the oath of the LORD of Armies, closed with 하시도다. At 51:1 it has no name where WEB reads “those who dwell in Lebkamai” (나를 대적하는 자 중에 처하는 자, those who dwell among those who rise up against me), and it reads 멸망시키는 자의 마음 (the spirit of a destroyer), where WEB reads “a destroying wind”.
