## Jeremiah 51:6-9 in Context (Verses 3–12 KJV)
 
 [3 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/3) Against *him that* bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against *him that* lifteth himself up in his brigandine: and spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/4) Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and *they that are* thrust through in her streets.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/5) For Israel *hath* not *been* forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of the LORD of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/6) Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this *is* the time of the LORD’s vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/7) Babylon *hath been* a golden cup in the LORD’s hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/8) Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/9) We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up *even* to the skies.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/10) The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/11) Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device *is* against Babylon, to destroy it; because it *is* the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/jeremiah/51/12) Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.*
