Jeremias 50:15

15 Soem contra ela um grito de guerra de todos os lados!Ela se rende, suas torres caeme suas muralhas são derrubadas.Esta é a vingança do SENHOR;vinguem-se dela!Façam a ela o que ela fez aos outros!

Jeremias 50:15 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 50:15

Shout against her round about
As soldiers do when they make an assault upon a place, to encourage one another, and dismay the besieged; just as the Israelites did when they surrounded Jericho: she hath given her hand;
submitted to the conqueror, and sued for mercy. The Targum is,

``she is delivered into her hand;''
the hand of the Persians, by two princes of Babylon, who went off to Cyrus, and showed him how to take the city; or rather it was delivered by Zopyrus into the hands of Darius: her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down;
not at the taking of it by Cyrus, but afterwards by Darius; for this respects the conclusion of its destruction, which was progressive and gradual: for it [is] the vengeance of the Lord:
which he decreed, threatened, and took, and that on account of his people, who had been ill treated here; so the Targum,
``for it is the vengeance of the people of the Lord:''
and her enemies are called upon to take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do unto her;
that is, to execute the Lord's vengeance, of which the Persians were the instruments; and who were to go according to the law of retaliation, which is a just one; to do to Babylon as she had done to Jerusalem, and other places, she had utterly destroyed. These words seem to be referred to, and much the same are used of mystical Babylon, ( Revelation 18:6 ) .

Jeremias 50:15 In-Context

13 Por causa da ira do SENHOR ela não será habitada,mas estará completamente desolada.Todos os que passarem pela Babilônia ficarão chocados e zombarãopor causa de todas as suas feridas.
14 “Tomem posição de combate em volta da Babilônia,todos vocês que empunham o arco.Atirem nela! Não poupem flechas,pois ela pecou contra o SENHOR.
15 Soem contra ela um grito de guerra de todos os lados!Ela se rende, suas torres caeme suas muralhas são derrubadas.Esta é a vingança do SENHOR;vinguem-se dela!Façam a ela o que ela fez aos outros!
16 Eliminem da Babilônia o semeadore o ceifeiro, com a sua foice na colheita.Por causa da espada do opressor,que cada um volte para o seu próprio povo,e cada um fuja para a sua própria terra.
17 “Israel é um rebanho disperso,afugentado por leões.O primeiro a devorá-lofoi o rei da Assíria;e o último a esmagar os seus ossosfoi Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia”.
