Jeremiah 50:18
18 So I, the Lord God of Israel who rules over all, say: ▼▼ Heb “Therefore thus says Yahweh of armies, the God of Israel.” The first person is again adopted because the
Lord is speaking. For this title, “Yahweh of armies,” compare
7:3 and the study note on
2:19.
‘I will punish the king of Babylon and his land
just as I punished the king of Assyria.
