Jeremiah 51:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 Set up a standard in the land: blow the trumpets among the nations: prepare the nations against her: call up the kingdoms of [a]Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz against her, appoint the prince against her, cause horses to come up as the rough caterpillars.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the dukes thereof, and the princes thereof, and all the land of his dominion.
29 And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for the device of the Lord shall be performed against Babel, to make the land of Babel waste without an inhabitant.

Blow the trumpet among the nations!
