The Lord's Hammer (JER 51:20-23)

[51:20] The Lord says, “Babylonia, you are my hammer, my weapon of war. I used you to crush nations and kingdoms,

[51:21] to shatter horses and riders, to shatter chariots and their drivers,

[51:22] to kill men and women, to slay old and young, to kill boys and girls,

[51:23] to slaughter shepherds and their flocks, to slaughter farmers and their plow horses, to crush rulers and high officials.”
