The standard

How long must I see the standard
And hear the sound of the trumpet?

“Declare and proclaim among the nations.
Proclaim it and lift up a standard.
Do not conceal it but say,
‘Babylon has been captured,

Bel has been put to shame, Marduk has been shattered;

Her images have been put to shame, her idols have been shattered.’

Lift up a signal against the walls of Babylon;

Post a strong guard,
Station sentries,
Place men in ambush!
For the Lord has both purposed and performed
What He spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.

Go through, go through the gates,
Clear the way for the people;

Build up, build up the highway,

Remove the stones, lift up a standard over the peoples.

For i will

“Flee for safety, O sons of Benjamin,
From the midst of Jerusalem!
Now blow a trumpet in Tekoa
And raise a signal over

Beth-haccerem;

For evil looks down from the north,
And a great destruction.

Then afterwards,” declares the Lord, “I will give over Zedekiah king of Judah and his servants and the people, even those who survive in this city from the pestilence, the sword and the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their foes and into the hand of those who seek their lives; and he will strike them down with the edge of the sword. He will not spare them nor have pity nor compassion.”’

behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and will bring them against this land and against its inhabitants and against all these nations round about; and I will utterly destroy them and make them a horror and a hissing, and an everlasting desolation.

And a great

And great destruction.

The sound of an outcry from Babylon,
And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

Destruction

“On that day,” declares the Lord,
“There will be the sound of a cry from the Fish Gate,
A wail from the

Second Quarter,

And a loud crash from the hills.
