Jeremiah 50:35-37

New International Reader's Version

³⁵ “A sword is coming against the Babylonians!”
    announces the Lord.
“It is coming against those who live in Babylon.
    It is coming against their officials and wise men.
³⁶ A sword is coming against their prophets.
    But they are not really prophets at all!
    So they will look foolish.
A sword is coming against their soldiers!
    They will be filled with terror.
³⁷ A sword is coming against their horses and chariots!
    It is coming against all the hired soldiers in their armies.
    They will become weak.
A sword is coming against their treasures!
    They will be stolen.
