Jeremiah 50:29-31

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁹ “Call together the archers, the soldiers with bows, against Babylon.
Set up blockades around it. Don’t let anyone escape.
Pay the people of Babylon back for what they have done.
Do to them what they did to others.
They have disobeyed the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
³⁰ That is why their young men will die in the streets,
and all their soldiers will be silenced that day,”
declares the Lord.

³¹ “I’m against you, you arrogant city,”
declares the Almighty Lord of Armies.
“Your day has come, the time when I will punish you.
