Lexicon :: Strong's H894 - bāḇel

“For behold ^H2009, I am going to arouse ^H5782 and bring ^H5927 up ^H5927 against ^H5921 Babylon ^H894

An assembly ^H6951 of great ^H1419 nations ^H1471 from the land ^H776 of the north ^H6828,

And they will arrange ^H6186 their battle ^H6186 lines ^H6186 against her;

From there ^H8033 she will be taken ^H3920 captive ^H3920.

Their arrows ^H2671 will be like [fn]a warrior ^H1368 who makes one childless ^H7919

Who does not return ^H7725 empty-handed ^H7387.

“Arrange ^H6186 your battle ^H6186 lines ^H6186 against ^H5921 Babylon ^H894 on every ^H5439 side ^H5439,

All ^H3605 you who [fn]bend ^H1869 the bow ^H7198;

Shoot ^H3034 at her, do not be sparing ^H2550 with your arrows ^H2671,

For she has sinned ^H2398 against Yahweh ^H3068.

“Israel ^H3478 is a scattered ^H6340 [fn]flock ^H7716; the lions ^H738 have banished ^H5080 them away ^H5080. The first ^H7223 one ^H7223 who devoured ^H398 him was the king ^H4428 of Assyria ^H804, and this ^H2088 last ^H314 one ^H314 who has broken ^H6105 his bones ^H6105 is Nebuchadnezzar ^H5019 king ^H4428 of Babylon ^H894.

“I set ^H3369 a ^H3369 snare ^H3369 for you, and you were also ^H1571 caught ^H3920, O Babylon ^H894,

But you yourself ^H859 did ^H3045 not know ^H3045;

You have been found ^H4672 and also ^H1571 seized ^H8610

Because ^H3588 you have engaged ^H1624 in ^H1624 conflict ^H1624 with Yahweh ^H3068.”

“Summon ^H8085 [fn]many ^H7227 against ^H413 Babylon ^H894,

All ^H3605 those who [fn]bend ^H1869 the bow ^H7198:

Encamp ^H2583 against ^H5921 her on every ^H5439 side ^H5439,

Let there be no ^H408 escape ^H6413[fn].

Repay ^H7999 her according to her work ^H6467;

According to all ^H3605 that she has done ^H6213, so do ^H6213 to her;

For she has become ^H2102 arrogant ^H2102 against ^H413 Yahweh ^H3068,

Against ^H413 the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478.

“A sword ^H2719 against ^H5921 the Chaldeans ^H3778,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068,

“And against ^H413 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Babylon ^H894

And against ^H413 her officials ^H8269 and her wise ^H2450 men ^H2450!

“The king ^H4428 of Babylon ^H894 has heard ^H8085 the report ^H8088 about them,

And his hands ^H3027 hang ^H7503 limp ^H7503;

Distress ^H6869 has taken ^H2388 hold ^H2388 of him,

Agony ^H2427 like a woman in ^H3205 childbirth ^H3205.

“I will send ^H7971 [fn]strangers ^H2114 to Babylon ^H894 that they may winnow ^H2219 her

And may empty ^H1238 her land ^H776 to destruction ^H1238;

For on every ^H5439 side ^H5439 they will be against ^H5921 her

In the day ^H3117 of her calamity ^H7451.

Babylon ^H894 has been a golden ^H2091 cup ^H3563 in the hand ^H3027 of Yahweh ^H3068,

Intoxicating ^H7937 all ^H3605 the earth ^H776.

The nations ^H1471 have drunk ^H8354 of her wine ^H3196;

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 the nations ^H1471 are going ^H1984 mad ^H1984.

Suddenly ^H6597 Babylon ^H894 has fallen ^H5307 and been broken ^H7665;

Wail ^H3213 over ^H5921 her!

Take ^H3947 [fn]balm ^H6875 for her pain ^H4341;

Perhaps ^H194 she may be healed ^H7495.

We applied healing ^H7495 to Babylon ^H894, but she was not healed ^H7495;

Forsake ^H5800 her and let us each ^H376 go ^H1980 to his own country ^H776,

For her judgment ^H4941 has touched ^H5060 heaven ^H8064

And lifts ^H5375 up ^H5375 to the very skies ^H7834.

Lift ^H5375 up ^H5375 a standard ^H5251 against ^H413 the walls ^H2346 of Babylon ^H894;

Make ^H2388 strong ^H2388 the watch ^H4929;

Raise ^H6965 up ^H6965 [fn]watchmen ^H8104;

Establish ^H3559 men in ^H693 ambush ^H693!

For Yahweh ^H3068 has both ^H1571 purposed ^H2161 and performed ^H6213

What ^H834 He spoke ^H1696 concerning ^H413 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Babylon ^H894.

The mighty ^H1368 men ^H1368 of Babylon ^H894 have ceased ^H2308 fighting ^H3898;

They inhabit ^H3427 the strongholds ^H4679;

Their might ^H1369 is dried ^H5405 up;

They are becoming ^H1961 like women ^H802;

Their dwelling ^H4908 places ^H4908 are set ^H3341 on ^H3341 fire ^H3341;

The bars ^H1280 of her gates are broken ^H7665.

One runner ^H7323 runs ^H7323 to meet ^H7122 [fn]another ^H7323,

And one messenger ^H5046 to meet ^H7122 [fn]another ^H5046,

To give ^H5046 a message ^H5046 to the king ^H4428 of Babylon ^H894

That his city ^H5892 has been captured ^H3920 from end ^H7097 to end;

“Nebuchadnezzar ^H5019 king ^H4428 of Babylon ^H894 has devoured ^H398 me and brought ^H2000 me into confusion ^H2000;

He has set ^H3322 me down ^H3322 like an empty ^H7386 vessel ^H3627;

He has swallowed ^H1104 me like a sea monster ^H8577;

He has filled ^H4390 his stomach ^H3770 with my delicacies ^H5730;

He has rinsed ^H1740 me away ^H1740.

“May the violence ^H2555 done to me and to my flesh ^H7607 be upon Babylon ^H894,”

The [fn]inhabitant ^H3427 of Zion ^H6726 will say ^H559;

And, “May my blood ^H1818 be upon the inhabitants ^H3427 of Chaldea ^H3778,”

Jerusalem ^H3389 will say ^H559.

“The [fn]sea ^H3220 has come ^H5927 up ^H5927 over ^H5921 Babylon ^H894;

She has been covered ^H3680 with its tumultuous ^H1995 waves ^H1530.

“Then heaven ^H8064 and earth ^H776 and all ^H3605 that is in them

Will shout ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442 over ^H5921 Babylon ^H894,

For the destroyers ^H7703 will come ^H935 to her from the north ^H6828,”

Declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

Indeed ^H1571 Babylon ^H894 is to fall ^H5307 for the slain ^H2491 of Israel ^H3478,

As also ^H1571 for Babylon ^H894 the slain ^H2491 of all ^H3605 the earth ^H776 have fallen ^H5307.

The sound ^H6963 of an outcry ^H2201 from Babylon ^H894,

And of great ^H1419 destruction ^H7667 from the land ^H776 of the Chaldeans ^H3778!

For Yahweh ^H3068 is going to destroy ^H7703 Babylon ^H894,

And He will make ^H6 her loud ^H1419 [fn]noise ^H6963 [fn]vanish ^H6 from her.

And their waves ^H1530 will roar ^H1993 like many ^H7227 waters ^H4325;

The rumbling ^H7588 of their voices ^H6963 [fn]sounds ^H5414 forth ^H5414.

For the destroyer ^H7703 is coming ^H935 against ^H5921 her, against ^H5921 Babylon ^H894,

And her mighty ^H1368 men ^H1368 will be captured ^H3920;

Their bows ^H7198 are shattered ^H2865;

For Yahweh ^H3068 is a God ^H410 of recompense ^H1578,

He will fully ^H7999 repay ^H7999.

The [fn]message ^H1697 which ^H834 Jeremiah ^H3414 the prophet ^H5030 commanded ^H6680 Seraiah ^H8304 the son ^H1121 of Neriah ^H5374, the grandson ^H1121 of Mahseiah ^H4271, when he went ^H1980 with Zedekiah ^H6667 the king ^H4428 of Judah ^H3063 to Babylon ^H894 in the fourth ^H7243 year ^H8141 of his reign ^H4427. (Now Seraiah ^H8304 was quartermaster ^H8269 H4496.)
