51 This is what the Lord says:

Watch, I will stir up a destroying wind against Babylon
and against the people who live in Leb Kamai.[a]

    to winnow her and empty her land.
They will oppose her on every side in the day of trouble.

Footnotes

  1. Jeremiah 51:1 Leb Kamai seems to be a cryptogram for Chaldea. Taking the letters of the Hebrew word for Chaldeans and writing them in reverse alphabet (A=Z, B=Y, etc.) produces Leb Kamai, which means heart of my adversaries.
