1
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,760
Jeremiah chapter 51, verses 15 
through 64. 

2
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,600
It is he who made the earth by 
his power, who established the 

3
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,320
world by his wisdom, and by his 
understanding stretched out the 

4
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,600
heavens. 
When he utters his voice, 

5
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,880
there's a tumult of waters in 
the heavens, and he makes the 

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,080
mist rise from the ends of the 
earth. 

7
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,640
He makes lightning for the rain,
and he brings forth the wind 

8
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,240
from his storehouses. 
Every man is stupid and without 

9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,720
knowledge. 
Every Goldsmith is put to shame 

10
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:38,000
by his idols, for his images are
false, and there is no breath in

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,360
them. 
They are worthless, a work of 

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,880
delusion. 
At the time of their punishment 

13
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,720
they shall perish. 
Not like these is he who was the

14
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,800
portion of Jacob, for he is the 
one who formed all things, and 

15
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,920
Israel is the tribe of his 
inheritance. 

16
00:00:53,160 --> 00:00:57,600
The Lord of Host is his name. 
You are my hammer and weapon of 

17
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,080
war. 
With you I break nations in 

18
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,800
pieces. 
With you I destroy kingdoms. 

19
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,720
With you I break in pieces the 
horse and his rider. 

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,720
And with you I break in pieces 
the chariot and the charioteer. 

21
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,760
With you I break in pieces man 
and woman. 

22
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,240
With you I break in pieces the 
old man and the youth. 

23
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,960
With you I break in pieces the 
young man and the young woman. 

24
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,000
With you I break in pieces the 
shepherd and his flock. 

25
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:27,280
With you I break in pieces the 
farmer and his team. 

26
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,800
With you I break in pieces. 
Governors and commanders, I will

27
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,800
repay Babylon and all the 
inhabitants of Chaldea before 

28
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,480
your very eyes for all the evil 
that they have done in Zion, 

29
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,960
declares the Lord. 
Behold, I am against you, O 

30
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:46,320
destroying mountain, declares 
the Lord, which destroys the 

31
00:01:46,320 --> 00:01:48,360
whole earth. 
I will stretch out my hand 

32
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,440
against you and roll you down 
from the crags and make you a 

33
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,520
burnt mountain. 
No stone shall be taken from you

34
00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:00,480
for a corner, and no stone for a
foundation, but you shall be a 

35
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,040
perpetual waste, declares the 
Lord. 

36
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,480
Set up a standard on the earth. 
Blow the trumpet among the 

37
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,199
nations. 
Prepare the nations for war 

38
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:12,440
against her. 
Summon against her the kingdoms 

39
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,480
Ararat, Minnie, and Ashkenaz. 
Appoint a Marshall against her, 

40
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,560
bringing up horses like 
bristling locusts. 

41
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,400
Prepare the nations for war 
against her. 

42
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,880
The kings of the Medes, with 
their governors and deputies in 

43
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:31,120
every land under their dominion.
The land trembles and writhes 

44
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,640
and pain for the Lord's purposes
against Babylon, stand to make 

45
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:39,120
the land of Babylon a desolation
without inhabitant. 

46
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,080
The warriors of Babylon have 
seized fighting. 

47
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,800
They remain in their 
strongholds. 

48
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,800
Their strength has failed. 
They have become women. 

49
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,200
Her dwellings are on fire, her 
bars are broken. 1 runner runs 

50
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,760
to meet another, and one 
messenger to meet another, to 

51
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,000
tell the king of Babylon that 
his city is taken on every side.

52
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,280
The Fords have been seized, the 
marshals are burned with fire, 

53
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,760
and the soldiers are in panic. 
For thus says the Lord of hosts,

54
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,640
the God of Israel, the daughter 
of Babylon is like a threshing 

55
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:10,960
floor at the time when it is 
trodden. 

56
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,200
Yet a little while and the time 
of her harvest will come. 

57
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,200
Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon,
has devoured me. 

58
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,240
He has crushed me, He has made 
me an empty vessel, He has 

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,840
swallowed me like a monster. 
He has filled his stomach with 

60
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,480
my delicacies. 
He has rinsed me out. 

61
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,640
The violence done to me and to 
my kinsmen. 

62
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,040
Be upon Babylon, let the 
inhabitant of Zion say. 

63
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,040
My blood be upon the inhabitants
of Chaldea. 

64
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,760
Let Jerusalem say. 
Therefore, Thus says the Lord, 

65
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,000
Behold, I will plead your cause,
and take vengeance for you. 

66
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,400
I will dry up her sea and make 
her fountain dry, and Babylon 

67
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,720
shall become a heap of ruins, 
the haunt of jackals, a horror 

68
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,360
and a hissing without 
inhabitant. 

69
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,080
They shall roar together like 
lions. 

70
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,400
They shall growl like lions 
Cubs. 

71
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:03,360
While they are inflamed, I will 
prepare them a feast and make 

72
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,760
them drunk, that they may become
merry. 

73
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,960
Then sleep a perpetual sleep and
not wake, declares the Lord. 

74
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,960
I will bring them down like 
lambs to the slaughter, like 

75
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,240
Rams and male goats. 
How Babylon is taken, the praise

76
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,440
of the whole earth seized. 
How Babylon has become a horror 

77
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,520
among the nations. 
The sea has come up on Babylon. 

78
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,120
She is covered with its 
tumultuous waves. 

79
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,360
Her cities have become a horror,
a land of drought and a desert, 

80
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,040
a land in which no one dwells 
and through which no son of man 

81
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,320
passes. 
And I will punish Bell in 

82
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,840
Babylon and take out his mouth 
what he has swallowed. 

83
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,480
The nation shall no longer flow 
to him. 

84
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,520
The wall of Babylon has fallen. 
Go out of the midst of her, My 

85
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,640
people, let everyone save his 
life from the fierce anger of 

86
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,400
the Lord. 
Let not your heart faint, and be

87
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,240
not fearful at the report heard 
in the land. 

88
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,960
When a report comes in one year,
and afterward a report in 

89
00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:03,920
another year, and violence is in
the land, and ruler is against 

90
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,040
ruler. 
Therefore, behold, the days are 

91
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,920
coming when I will punish the 
images of Babylon. 

92
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:13,840
Her whole land shall be put to 
shame, and all her slain shall 

93
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:17,080
fall in the midst of her. 
Then the heavens and the earth 

94
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,440
and all that is in them shall 
sing for joy over Babylon, for 

95
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,880
the destroyer shall come against
them out of the north, declares 

96
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,640
the Lord. 
Babylon must fall for the slain 

97
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,560
of Israel, just As for Babylon 
has fallen the slain of all the 

98
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,760
earth. 
You who have escaped from the 

99
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:39,000
sword, go, do not stand still. 
Remember the Lord from far away,

100
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,240
and let Jerusalem come into your
mind. 

101
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,400
We are put to shame, for we have
heard reproach. 

102
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,720
Dishonor has covered our face, 
for foreigners have come into 

103
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,600
the holy places of the Lord's 
house. 

104
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,200
Therefore, behold, the days are 
coming, declares the Lord, when 

105
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,320
I will execute judgment upon her
images and through all her land 

106
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,760
the wounded shall groan. 
Though Babylon should mount up 

107
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,520
to heaven, and though she should
fortify her strong height, yet 

108
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,240
destroyers would come from me 
against her, declares the Lord. 

109
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:13,120
A cry, a voice from Babylon, the
noise of great destruction from 

110
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,360
the land of the Chaldeans. 
For the Lord is laying Babylon 

111
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,360
waste and stealing her mighty 
voice. 

112
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,080
Their waves roar like many 
waters, the noise of their 

113
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,960
voices raised. 
For a destroyer has come upon 

114
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,320
her, upon Babylon. 
Her warriors are taken, their 

115
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,760
bows are broken in pieces. 
For the Lord is a God of 

116
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,080
recompense. 
He will surely repay. 

117
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,240
I will make drunk her officials 
and her wise men, her governors,

118
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,920
her commanders and her warriors.
They shall sleep a perpetual 

119
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,680
sleep, and not wake, declares 
the King, whose name is the Lord

120
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,600
of Hosts. 
Thus says the Lord of Hosts, the

121
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,680
broad wall of Babylon shall be 
levelled to the ground, and her 

122
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,920
high gates shall be burned with 
fire. 

123
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,720
The people's labor for nothing, 
and the nations weary themselves

124
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,440
only for fire. 
The word that Jeremiah the 

125
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,160
prophet commanded. 
Soraya the son of Neriah, son of

126
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,520
Messiah, when he went with 
Zedekiah, king of Judah, to 

127
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,640
Babylon in the fourth year of 
his reign. 

128
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,840
Soraya was the quartermaster. 
Jeremiah wrote in a book All the

129
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,880
disaster that should come upon 
Babylon. 

130
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,440
All these words that are written
concerning Babylon and Jeremiah 

131
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,640
said to Soraya, When you come to
Babylon, see that you read all 

132
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,800
these words and say, O Lord, you
have said concerning this place,

133
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,920
that you will cut it off, so 
that nothing shall dwell in it, 

134
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,280
neither man nor beast, and it 
shall be desolate forever. 

135
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,320
When you finish reading this 
book, tie a stone to it and cast

136
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,560
it in the midst of the 
Euphrates, and say, Thus shall 

137
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,520
Babylon sink to rise no more 
because of the disaster that I 

138
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,880
am bringing upon her, and they 
shall become exhausted. 

139
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:56,000
Thus far are the words of 
Jeremiah, Second Timothy, 

140
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,160
chapter 4. 
Preach the word. 

141
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,640
I charge you in the presence of 
God and of Christ Jesus, who was

142
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,360
the judge, the living, and the 
dead, and by His appearing in 

143
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,200
His Kingdom. 
Preach the word. 

144
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,880
Be ready in season and out of 
season. 

145
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:18,360
Reprove, rebuke and exhort with 
complete patience and teaching. 

146
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,320
For the time is coming when 
people will not endure sound 

147
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,120
teaching, but having itching 
ears, they will accumulate for 

148
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,640
themselves teachers to suit 
their own passions and will turn

149
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,880
away from listening to the truth
and wander off into myths. 

150
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:37,360
But As for you, always be sober 
minded, endure suffering, and do

151
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,400
the work of an evangelist. 
Fulfill your ministry, for I am 

152
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,760
already being poured out as a 
drink offering, and the time of 

153
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,000
my departure has come. 
I have fought the good fight, I 

154
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,280
have finished the race, I have 
kept the faith. 

155
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,520
Henceforth there is laid up for 
me the crown of righteousness, 

156
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,760
which the Lord, the righteous 
Judge, will award to me on that 

157
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,120
day, and not only to me, but 
also to all who have loved His 

158
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,320
appearing. 
Personal instructions. 

159
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,600
Do your best to come to me soon,
for Demas, in love with this 

160
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,040
present world, has deserted me 
and gone to Thessalonica. 

161
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:21,200
Crescens has gone to Galatia, 
Titus to Dalmatia, Luke alone 

162
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,720
with me. 
Get Mark and bring him with you,

163
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,400
for he is very useful to me for 
ministry. 

164
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,200
Tychicus, I have sent to 
Ephesus. 

165
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,800
When you come, bring the cloak 
that I left with Carpus at 

166
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,240
Troas, also the books, and above
all the parchments. 

167
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,080
Alexander the coppersmith did me
great harm. 

168
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,760
The Lord will repay him 
according to his deeds. 

169
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,800
Beware of him yourself, for he 
strongly opposed our message. 

170
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,440
At my first offence no one came 
to stand by me, but all deserted

171
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,600
me. 
May it not be charged against 

172
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,040
them? 
But the Lord stood by me and 

173
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,480
strengthened me, so that through
me the message might be fully 

174
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,800
proclaimed and all the gentiles 
might hear it. 

175
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,320
So I was rescued from the lion's
mouth. 

176
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,360
The Lord will rescue me from 
every evil deed and bring me 

177
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,560
safely into His heavenly 
Kingdom. 

178
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,120
To Him be the glory forever and 
ever. 

179
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:18,240
Amen. 
Final greetings, great. 

180
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,000
Prisca and Aquila in the 
household of Onusiparous. 

181
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,920
Erastus remained at Corinth, and
I left Trophimus, who was ill at

182
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,280
my Litus. 
Do your best to come before 

183
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,360
winter. 
Ubilis sends greetings to you, 

184
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,480
as do Putins and Linus and 
Claudia and all the brothers. 

185
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,320
The Lord be with your spirit. 
Grace be with you. 

186
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,680
Proverbs Chapter 9, verses 13 
through 18. 

187
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,960
The Way of Folly The woman Folly
is loud, she is seductive, and 

188
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,400
she knows nothing. 
She sits at the door of her 

189
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,640
house. 
She takes a seat on the highest 

190
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,480
places of the town, calling to 
those who pass by, who are going

191
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,640
straight on their way. 
Whoever is simple, let him turn 

192
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,800
in here, and to him who lacks 
sense. 

193
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,400
She says stolen water is sweet 
and bread eaten in secret is 

194
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,800
pleasant. 
But he does not know that the 

195
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,240
dead are there, that her guests 
are in the depths of Sheol.
