Jeremiah 50:15-17
Holman Christian Standard Bible
15 Raise a war cry against her on every side!
She has thrown up her hands in surrender;
her defense towers have fallen;
her walls are demolished.(A)
Since this is the Lord’s vengeance,(B)
take out your vengeance on her;
as she has done, do the same to her.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon
as well as him who wields the sickle at harvest time.
Because of the oppressor’s sword,(C)
each will turn to his own people,(D)
each will flee to his own land.
The Return of God’s People
17 Israel is a stray lamb, chased by lions.(E)
The first who devoured him was the king of Assyria;
the last one who crushed his bones
was Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.(F)
Jeremiah 50:15-17
New International Version
15 Shout(A) against her on every side!
She surrenders, her towers fall,
her walls(B) are torn down.
Since this is the vengeance(C) of the Lord,
take vengeance on her;
do to her(D) as she has done to others.(E)
16 Cut off from Babylon the sower,
and the reaper with his sickle at harvest.
Because of the sword(F) of the oppressor
let everyone return to their own people,(G)
let everyone flee to their own land.(H)
