Jeremiah 50:44 in Context — Jeremiah 50

42 Eles manejam arco e lança; são cruéis, e não terão compaixão; sua voz soará como o mar, e montarão sobre cavalos; ficarão em posição como de homem para a batalha, contra ti, ó filha da Babilônia.

43 O rei da Babilônia ouviu a notícia deles, e suas mãos perderam as forças; tomado foi por angústia e dor, como mulher de parto.

44 Eis que como leão subirá da mata do Jordão contra a morada do forte; pois repentinamente o farei correr dali. E ordenarei contra ela a quem eu escolher; pois quem é semelhante a mim? E quem manda em mim? Ou quem é o pastor que pode subsistir diante de mim?

45 Portanto ouvi o conselho do SENHOR, que decretou contra a Babilônia; e seus pensamentos, que ele determinou sobre a terra dos caldeus: Certamente os menores do rebanho serão arrastados, certamente destruirá sua habitação com deles.

46 Do ruído da tomada da Babilônia a terra tremeu, e o grito se ouviu entre as nações.
