Jeremiah 25:18Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 versionTo wit, Jerusalem and the cities of Juda and the kings thereof and the princes thereof: to make them a desolation and an astonishment and a hissing and a curse, as it is at this day. See the chapter |
Behold, I will send, and take all the kindreds of the north, saith the Lord, and Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon my servant: and I will bring them against this land and against the inhabitants thereof and against all the nations that are round about it: and I will destroy them and make them an astonishment and a hissing and perpetual desolations.
From the days of our fathers. And we ourselves also have sinned grievously unto this day: and for our iniquities we, and our kings, and our priests have been delivered into the hands of the kings of the lands, and to the sword, and to captivity, and to spoil, and to confusion of face, as it is at this day.
