Jeremiah 51:58 in Context — Jeremiah 51
56 Pois o destruidor vem contra ela, contra Babilônia; seus guerreiros serão presos, o arco deles será quebrado; porque o SENHOR, Deus de retribuições, certamente dará a pagamento.
57 E embriagarei a seus príncipes e seus sábios, a seus governadores, seus chefes e seus guerreiros; e dormirão sonho perpétuo, e não despertarão, diz o Rei, cujo nome é EU-SOU dos exércitos.
58 Assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos: Os largos muros da Babilônia serão derrubado por completo, e suas altas portas serão incendiadas a fogo; os povos trabalharão para nada, as nações para o fogo, e se cansarão.
59 Palavra que o profeta Jeremias enviou a Seraías, filho de Nerias, filho de Maasias, quando ele foi com Zedequias rei de Judá para a Babilônia, no quarto ano de seu reinado. E Seraías era o camareiro-chefe.
60 Escreveu, pois, Jeremias em um livro todo o mal que viria sobre a Babilônia, todas estas palavras que estavam escritas contra a Babilônia.
