Jeremiah 51:56

O daughter of Babylon, you devastated one, How blessed will be the one who repays you With the recompense with which you have recompensed us.

The oracle concerning Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz beheld.

Like heat in a dry land, You subdue the rumbling of strangers; Like heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the ruthless is silenced.

‘—For many nations and great kings will make slaves of them, even them; and I will repay them according to their deeds and according to the work of their hands—’”

“Thus says Yahweh of hosts, ‘Behold, I am going to break the bow of Elam, The finest of their might.

“The noise of battle is in the land, And great destruction.

“Summon many against Babylon, All those who bend the bow: Encamp against her on every side, Let there be no escape. Repay her according to her work; According to all that she has done, so do to her; For she has become arrogant against Yahweh, Against the Holy One of Israel.

You will recompense them, O Yahweh, According to the work of their hands.

“He who grasps the bow will not stand his ground, The swift of foot will not escape, Nor will he who rides the horse make his life escape.

“For the day of Yahweh draws near on all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you. Your dealings will return on your own head.
