Jeremiah 50:24-26

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁴ Babylon, I put a trap to catch you,
and you did not know about it.
Now I have caught you in my trap,
because you fought against me.
²⁵ I have taken out my weapons from the place where I had stored them.
I will use those weapons to punish the people of Babylonia,
because I am very angry with them.^[a]
I am the Lord God Almighty.
I have work to do in the land of Babylonia.
²⁶ Now come from far away to attack Babylonia!
Break open the store rooms and take out the grain.
Knock down their buildings and break them into pieces.
Completely destroy everything.
Do not let anything remain!
