Jeremiah 50:29-31
Easy-to-Read Version
29 “Call for the archers.
Tell them to attack Babylon.
Tell them to surround the city.
Don’t let anyone escape.
Pay her back for the bad things she has done.
Do to her what she has done to other nations.
Babylon did not respect the Lord.
Babylon was very rude to the Holy One of Israel.
So punish Babylon.
30 Babylon’s young men will be killed in the streets.
All her soldiers will die on that day.”
This is what the Lord says.
31 “Babylon, you are too proud,
and I am against you,”
says the Lord God All-Powerful.
“I am against you,
and the time has come for you to be punished.
Jeremiah 50:29-31

all those who draw the bow.(A)
Encamp all around her;
let no one escape.(B)
Repay(C) her for her deeds;(D)

For she has defied(E) the Lord,
the Holy One(F) of Israel.
30 Therefore, her young men(G) will fall in the streets;
all her soldiers will be silenced in that day,”
declares the Lord.
31 “See, I am against(H) you, you arrogant one,”
declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
“for your day(I) has come,
the time for you to be punished.
