Jeremiah 51:12-14

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹² Raise your battle flag in front of the walls of Babylon.
Strengthen the guards.
Station watchmen.
Prepare ambushes.
The Lord will carry out his plans
against the people who live in Babylon.
¹³ Babylon, you live beside many rivers and are rich with treasures,
but your end has come.
The thread of your life has been cut off.
¹⁴ The Lord of Armies has taken an oath on himself:
“I will certainly fill you with many enemy armies.
They will swarm like locusts.
People will shout their victory over you.”
