Babylon’s Punishment
48Then heaven and earth and all that is in them will shout for joy over Babylon because the destroyers from the north will come against her,” declares the LORD. 49“Babylon must fall on account of the slain of Israel, just as the slain of all the earth have fallen because of Babylon. 50You who have escaped the sword, depart and do not linger! Remember the LORD from far away, and let Jerusalem come to mind.”
