And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
***
And Noah began to be an
husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
Now
these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and
Japheth:
***
Set
ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the
nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of
Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz;
appoint
a
captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough
caterpillars.
Prepare
against her the nations with the kings
of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.
And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the Lord
shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a
desolation without an inhabitant.
The
mighty men of Babylon have
forborne to fight, they have remained
in their holds: their might hath failed; they became as women:
they
have burned her dwellingplaces; her bars
are broken.
One
post shall run to meet
another, and one messenger to meet another, to shew the king of Babylon that
his city is taken at one end,
And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire,
and the men of war are affrighted.
For thus saith
the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a
threshingfloor,
it is
time to thresh her:
yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
I am The Lord Samuel
