Jer Jeremiah, chapter Book of Jeremiah, chapter 25
behold, I will summon all the families of the north, declares the LORD, and I will send for My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, whom I will bring against this land, against its residents, and against all the surrounding nations. So I will devote them to destruction25:9 Forms of the Hebrew cherem refer to the giving over of things or persons, either by destroying them or by giving them as an offering. and make them an object of horror and contempt, an everlasting desolation.2Ki 17:23; Jer 19:4; Jer 19:8
