Jeremiah 50:22-24
The Message
22-24 “The thunderclap of battle
shakes the foundations!
The Hammer has been hammered,
smashed and splintered,
Babylon pummeled
beyond recognition.
I set out a trap and you were caught in it.
O Babylon, you never knew what hit you,
Caught and held in the steel grip of that trap!
That’s what you get for taking on God.
Jeremiah 50:22-24
New International Version
22 The noise(A) of battle is in the land,
the noise of great destruction!
23 How broken and shattered
is the hammer(B) of the whole earth!(C)
How desolate(D) is Babylon
among the nations!
24 I set a trap(E) for you, Babylon,
and you were caught before you knew it;
you were found and captured(F)
because you opposed(G) the Lord.
