Jeremiah 50:22-24

Contemporary English Version

²² Sounds of war
and the noise of destruction
    can be heard.
²³ Babylonia was a hammer
pounding every country,
    but now it lies broken.
What a shock to the nations
    of the world!

²⁴ Babylonia challenged me,
    the Lord God All-Powerful,
but that nation doesn't know
it is caught in a trap
    that I set.
