Jeremiah 51:10-12

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁰ The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion the work of the Lord our God.

¹¹ Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.

¹² Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
