1 This is what the Lord says:I will stir up a destructive wind against Babylonand against the people who live in Leb Kamai.
2 I will send people to winnow Babylon,to winnow it and strip its land bare.They will attack it from every direction on the day of trouble.
3 Have the archers bend their bows.Have them put on their armor.Don’t spare Babylon’s young men.Completely destroy its whole army.
4 Babylon’s soldiers will fall down badly wounded in their streets.They will lie dead in their own land.
