Jeremiah 50:24 Context
22A sound of battell is in the land, and of great destruction. 23How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken? how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations? 24I haue laide a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found and also caught, because thou hast striuen against the Lord. 25The Lord hath opened his armorie, and hath brought foorth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the worke of the Lord God of hosts, in the land of the Caldeans. 26Come against her from the vtmost border, open her store-houses: cast her vp as heapes, and destroy her vtterly: let nothing of her be left.
