Jeremiah 50:14-16
New International Reader's Version
Jeremiah 50:14-16
New International Reader's Version
14 “All you who shoot arrows,
take up your battle positions around Babylon.
Shoot at it! Do not spare any arrows!
Its people have sinned against me.
15 Shout against them on every side!
They are giving up.
The towers of the city are falling.
Its walls are being pulled down.
The Lord is paying back its people.
So pay them back yourselves.
Do to them what they have done to others.
16 Do not leave anyone in Babylon to plant the fields.
Do not leave anyone to harvest the grain.
Let each of them return to their own people.
Let them run away to their own land.
If they don’t, their enemy’s sword will bring them great harm.

Jeremiah 50:14-16
New International Version
14 “Take up your positions around Babylon,
all you who draw the bow.(A)
Shoot at her! Spare no arrows,(B)
for she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Shout(C) against her on every side!
She surrenders, her towers fall,
her walls(D) are torn down.
Since this is the vengeance(E) of the Lord,
take vengeance on her;
do to her(F) as she has done to others.(G)
16 Cut off from Babylon the sower,
and the reaper with his sickle at harvest.
Because of the sword(H) of the oppressor
let everyone return to their own people,(I)
let everyone flee to their own land.(J)
