Y enviaré extranjeros a Babilonia que la aventarán y vaciarán su tierra; porque estarán contra ella por todos lados el día de su tribulación.
Y enviar Babilonia aventadores que la avienten, y vaciarn su tierra; porque sern contra ella de todas partes en el da del mal.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will send unto Babylon farmers, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land,.... Or, "strangers that shall fan her" c; meaning the Medes and Persians, who should be like a strong wind upon the mountains, where corn, having been threshed, was fanned, and the chaff carried away by the wind; and such would the Chaldeans be in the hand of the Persians, scattered and dispersed among the nations as chaff with the wind, and their cities be emptied of inhabitants, and of their wealth and riches. The Targum is,
"I will send against Babylon spoilers, that shall spoil and exhaust the land:''
for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about; in the time of the siege they shall surround her on all sides, so that none might escape; as Babylon had been a fanner of the Lord's people, now she should be fanned herself, and stripped of all she had; see
Jeremiah 15:7.
c זרים "alienos", Cocceius; some in Vatablus; so Kimchi, Ben Melech, Abendana.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Fanners - Or, winnowers.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 51:2. And will send - fanners — When the corn is trodden out with the feet of cattle, or crushed out with a heavy wheel armed with iron, with a shovel they throw it up against the wind, that the chaff and broken straw may be separated from it. This is the image used by the prophet; these people shall be trodden, crushed, and fanned by their enemies.
