Jeremiah 51:11, 27-29

YAHWEH has stirred up a spirit of hostility in the king of the Medes because YAHWEH’s plan is to destroy Babylon. This is YAHWEH’s revenge for destroying his temple. “Sharpen the arrows; fill up your quivers!

“Raise up a signal flag throughout the world; sound the war trumpet among the nations! Prepare the nations to attack her! Assemble the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, Ashkenaz to make war against her. Appoint a commanding officer to lead her enemies in battle; send multitudes of horsemen like swarms of locusts. Prepare the kings of Media, her governors, all her officials, and all the lands they rule to come make war against Babylon.” Then, when YAHWEH executed his plan against Babylon, the earth trembled and convulsed. He determined to make Babylon an uninhabited desert.
