Jeremiah 50:44-46

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴⁴ Behold he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of the Jordan to the strong and beautiful: for I will make him run suddenly upon her: and who shall be the chosen one whom I may appoint over her? for who is like to me? and who shall bear up against me? and who is that shepherd that can withstand my countenance?

⁴⁵ Therefore hear ye the counsel of the Lord, which he hath taken against Babylon: and his thoughts which he hath thought against the land of the Chaldeans: surely the little ones of the flocks shall pull them down, of a truth their habitation shall be destroyed with them.

⁴⁶ At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard amongst the nations.
