Geremia 51:20-23

Listen to Geremia 51:20-23
20 O Babilonia, tu sei stata per me un martello, uno strumento di guerra; con te ho schiacciato le nazioni, con te ho distrutto i regni;
21 con te ho schiacciato cavalli e cavalieri, con te ho schiacciato i carri e chi vi stava sopra;
22 con te ho schiacciato uomini e donne, con te ho schiacciato vecchi e bambini, con te ho schiacciato giovani e fanciulle;
23 con te ho schiacciato i pastori e i lor greggi, con te ho schiacciato i lavoratori e i lor buoi aggiogati; con te ho schiacciato governatori e magistrati.
