Jeremiah 51:7 in Context — Jeremiah 51

5 Porque Israel e Judá não foram abandonados por seu Deus, o SENHOR dos exércitos, ainda que sua terra foi cheia de pecado contra o Santo de Israel.

6 Fugi do meio de Babilônia, e livrai cada um sua alma; não pereçais por causa de sua maldade; pois é tempo de vingança do SENHOR, em que ele lhe dará o pagamento dela.

7 A Babilônia era um copo de ouro na mão do SENHOR, que embriagava toda a terra; de seu vinho beberam as nações; por isso as nações se enlouqueceram.

8 Repentinamente Babilônia caiu, e se despedaçou: uivai por ela; tomai bálsamo para sua dor, talvez sare.

9 Sararíamos Babilônia, porém ela não se sarou; deixai-a, e vamo-nos cada um a sua terra; pois seu julgamento chegou até o céu, e subiu até as nuvens.
