Jeremiah 51:10-12

Modern English Version

¹⁰ The Lord has brought forth our righteousness.
    Come, and let us declare in Zion
    the work of the Lord our God.

¹¹ Sharpen the arrows.
    Gather the shields.
The Lord has raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes.
    For His device is against Babylon, to destroy it;
because it is the vengeance of the Lord,
    the vengeance of His temple.
¹² Set up the standard against the walls of Babylon,
    make the watch strong,
set up the watchmen,
    prepare the ambushes.
For the Lord has both devised and done
    that which He spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
