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.
Afilen sus flechas y tomen sus escudos, Dios ha despertado a los reyes de los medos para que vengan contra Babilonia. Todo esto es parte de su plan para destruir esa ciudad, porque está cobrando venganza por lo que le hicieron a su templo.
Dios usa a los medos para destruir Babilonia como venganza por la profanación de su templo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 6th century BC, the prophet Jeremiah was delivering messages of judgment against Babylon, which had invaded Judah, destroyed the Jerusalem temple, and exiled the Israelites, as part of God's broader plan to punish unfaithful nations. This verse specifically prophesies the rise of the Medes, an ancient people allied with the Persians, whom God would use to conquer Babylon around 539 BC as an act of divine retribution for the desecration of His temple. The historical backdrop includes the Babylonian Empire's dominance and the eventual fulfillment of this prophecy when Cyrus the Great led the Medo-Persian forces to overthrow Babylon, allowing the Jews to return home.
