Jeremiah 51:14 in Context — Jeremiah 51

12 Levantad bandera sobre los muros de Babilonia, reforzad la guardia, poned centinelas, disponed celadas; porque deliberó Jehová, y aun pondrá en efecto lo que ha dicho sobre los moradores de Babilonia.

13 La que moras entre muchas aguas, rica en tesoros, venido ha tu fin, la medida de tu codicia.

14 Jehová de los ejércitos juró por su vida, [diciendo]: Yo te llenaré de hombres como de langostas, y levantarán contra ti gritería.

15 El [es el] que hizo la tierra con su fortaleza, el que afirmó el mundo con su sabiduría, y extendió los cielos con inteligencia;

16 El que da con su voz muchedumbre de aguas del cielo, y hace subir las nubes de lo postrero de la tierra; él hace relámpagos con la lluvia, y saca el viento de sus tesoros.
