Jeremiah 50:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 All those who found them have devoured them.
And their foes have said, ‘We are not guilty,
because[a] they have sinned against Yahweh, the true pasture,[b]
even Yahweh, the hope of their ancestors.’[c]
8 Flee from the midst of Babylon,
and from the land of the Chaldeans.
Go out and be like he-goats
before[d] the flock.
9 For look, I am going to stir up,
and I am going to bring against Babylon
a contingent of great nations
from the land of the north.
And they will draw up a battle formation against her,
from there she will be captured.
Their arrows are like a warrior who has achieved success,
he does not return without success.
