Jeremiah 51:16 sits in a long oracle against Babylon, spoken by the LORD through the prophet Jeremiah to Judah in the years before Babylon fell. Verses 15 to 19 form a hymn praising the Creator, and verse 16 pictures the storm as God's direct activity: the thunder, the rising clouds, the lightning that comes with rain, and the wind He brings out of His storehouses.
