لأَنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا لَيْسَا بِمَقْطُوعَيْنِ عَنْ إِلهِهِمَا، عَنْ رَبِّ الْجُنُودِ، وَإِنْ تَكُنْ أَرْضُهُمَا مَلآنَةً إِثْمًا عَلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

Because of the righteousness of Israel, Babylon is to be irretrievably destroyed. Jer 51:5. "For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of Jahveh of hosts; but their land is full of guilt because of the Holy One of Israel. Jer 51:6. Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save ye every one his life: do not perish for her iniquity; because it is a time of vengeance for Jahveh; He renders to her what she has committed. Jer 51:7. Babylon [was] a golden cup in the hand of Jahveh, that intoxicated all the earth. Nations have drunk of her wine, therefore nations are mad. Jer 51:8. Babylon has fallen suddenly and been broken: howl over her: take balsam for her pain; perhaps she may be healed. Jer 51:9. 'We have tried to heal Babylon, but she is not healed. Leave her, and let us go each one to his own land; for her judgment reaches unto heaven, and is lifted up to the clouds.' Jer 51:10. Jahveh hath brought forth our righteousnesses; come, and let us declare in Zion the doing of Jahveh our God. Jer 51:11. Sharpen the arrow, fill the shields: Jahveh hath roused the spirit of the kings of Media; for His counsel is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of Jahveh, the vengeance of His temple. Jer 51:12. Against the walls of Babylon raise a standard; strengthen the watch, set watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for Jahveh hath both devised and done what He spake against the inhabitants of Babylon. Jer 51:13. O thou that dwellest upon many waters, rich in treasures, thine end hath sworn by Himself, 'Surely I have filled thee with men, as [with] the locust; and they shall raise a shout of joy against thee.'" The offence of Babylon against the Holy One of Israel demands its destruction. In Jer 51:5, two reasons are given for God's determination to destroy Babylon…
افتح المصدر ↗The prophet, in this chapter, goes on with the prediction of Babylon's fall, to which other prophets also bore witness. He is very copious and lively in describing the foresight God had given him of it, for the encouragement of the pious captives, whose deliverance depended upon it and was to be the result of it. Here is, I. The record of Babylon's doom, with the particulars of it, intermixed with the grounds of God's controversy with her, many aggravations of her fall, and great encouragements given thence to the Israel of God, that suffered such hard things by her (v. 1-58). II. The representation and ratification of this by the throwing of a copy of this prophecy into the river Euphrates (Jer 51:59-64).

اِسْمَعُوا قَوْلَ الرَّبِّ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «إِنَّ لِلرَّبِّ مُحَاكَمَةً مَعَ سُكَّانِ الأَرْضِ، لأَنَّهُ لاَ أَمَانَةَ وَلاَ إِحْسَانَ وَلاَ مَعْرِفَةَ اللهِ فِي الأَرْضِ.
فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَسْتُرُ الرَّبُّ سُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَيَكُونُ الْعَاثِرُ مِنْهُمْ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ مِثْلَ دَاوُدَ، وَبَيْتُ دَاوُدَ مِثْلَ اللهِ، مِثْلَ مَلاَكِ الرَّبِّ أَمَامَهُمْ.
فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَجْعَلُ أُمَرَاءَ يَهُوذَا كَمِصْبَاحِ نَارٍ بَيْنَ الْحَطَبِ، وَكَمِشْعَلِ نَارٍ بَيْنَ الْحُزَمِ. فَيَأْكُلُونَ كُلَّ الشُّعُوبِ حَوْلَهُمْ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ الْيَسَارِ، فَتَثْبُتُ أُورُشَلِيمُ أَيْضًا فِي مَكَانِهَا بِأُورُشَلِيمَ.
وَالرَّبُّ يَرِثُ يَهُوذَا نَصِيبَهُ فِي الأَرْضِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ وَيَخْتَارُ أُورُشَلِيمَ بَعْدُ.
وَيُسَمُّونَهُمْ: «شَعْبًا مُقَدَّسًا»، «مَفْدِيِّي الرَّبِّ». وَأَنْتِ تُسَمَّيْنَ: «الْمَطْلُوبَةَ»، «الْمَدِينَةَ غَيْرَ الْمَهْجُورَةِ».
«اُذْكُرْ هذِهِ يَا يَعْقُوبُ، يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَبْدِي. قَدْ جَبَلْتُكَ. عَبْدٌ لِي أَنْتَ. يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ لاَ تُنْسَيِ مِنِّي.
مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُونِي، وَأَنْكَرُوا هذَا الْمَوْضِعَ وَبَخَّرُوا فِيهِ لآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا هُمْ وَلاَ آبَاؤُهُمْ وَلاَ مُلُوكُ يَهُوذَا، وَمَلأُوا هذَا الْمَوْضِعَ مِنْ دَمِ الأَزْكِيَاءِ،
لأَنَّنَا عَبِيدٌ نَحْنُ، وَفِي عُبُودِيَّتِنَا لَمْ يَتْرُكْنَا إِلهُنَا بَلْ بَسَطَ عَلَيْنَا رَحْمَةً أَمَامَ مُلُوكِ فَارِسَ، لِيُعْطِيَنَا حَيَاةً لِنَرْفَعَ بَيْتَ إِلهِنَا وَنُقِيمَ خَرَائِبَهُ، وَلْيُعْطِيَنَا حَائِطًا فِي يَهُوذَا وَفِي أُورُشَلِيمَ.
مَنْ هُوَ إِلهٌ مِثْلُكَ غَافِرٌ الإِثْمَ وَصَافِحٌ عَنِ الذَّنْبِ لِبَقِيَّةِ مِيرَاثِهِ! لاَ يَحْفَظُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ غَضَبَهُ، فَإِنَّهُ يُسَرُّ بِالرَّأْفَةِ.
وَأُعَاقِبُ أَوَّلاً إِثْمَهُمْ وَخَطِيَّتَهُمْ ضِعْفَيْنِ، لأَنَّهُمْ دَنَّسُوا أَرْضِي، وَبِجُثَثِ مَكْرُهَاتِهِمْ وَرَجَاسَاتِهِمْ قَدْ مَلأُوا مِيرَاثِي».
