New Living Translation
1 This is the vision that the Sovereign Lord revealed to Obadiah concerning the land of Edom.
Edom’s Judgment Announced
We have heard a message from the Lord
that an ambassador was sent to the nations to say,
“Get ready, everyone!
Let’s assemble our armies and attack Edom!”
2 The Lord says to Edom,
“I will cut you down to size among the nations;
you will be greatly despised.
3 You have been deceived by your own pride
because you live in a rock fortress
and make your home high in the mountains.
‘Who can ever reach us way up here?’
you ask boastfully.
4 But even if you soar as high as eagles
and build your nest among the stars,
I will bring you crashing down,”
says the Lord.

Obadiah’s Vision(A)(B)
1 The vision(C) of Obadiah.
This is what the Sovereign Lord says about Edom(D)—
We have heard a message from the Lord:
An envoy(E) was sent to the nations to say,
“Rise, let us go against her for battle”(F)—
2 “See, I will make you small(G) among the nations;
you will be utterly despised.
3 The pride(H) of your heart has deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks[a](I)
and make your home on the heights,
you who say to yourself,
‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’(J)
4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(K) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(L)
declares the Lord.(M)

Jeremiah 50:9-16
New Living Translation
9 For I am raising up an army
of great nations from the north.
They will join forces to attack Babylon,
and she will be captured.
The enemies’ arrows will go straight to the mark;
they will not miss!
10 Babylonia[a] will be looted
until the attackers are glutted with loot.
I, the Lord, have spoken!
Babylon’s Sure Fall
11 “You rejoice and are glad,
you who plundered my chosen people.
You frisk about like a calf in a meadow
and neigh like a stallion.
12 But your homeland[b] will be overwhelmed
with shame and disgrace.
You will become the least of nations—
a wilderness, a dry and desolate land.
13 Because of the Lord’s anger,
Babylon will become a deserted wasteland.
All who pass by will be horrified
and will gasp at the destruction they see there.
14 “Yes, prepare to attack Babylon,
all you surrounding nations.
Let your archers shoot at her; spare no arrows.
For she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Shout war cries against her from every side.
Look! She surrenders!
Her walls have fallen.
It is the Lord’s vengeance,
so take vengeance on her.
Do to her as she has done to others!
16 Take from Babylon all those who plant crops;
send all the harvesters away.
Because of the sword of the enemy,
everyone will run away and rush back to their own lands.

9 For I will stir(A) up and bring against Babylon
an alliance of great nations(B) from the land of the north.(C)
They will take up their positions against her,
and from the north she will be captured.(D)
Their arrows(E) will be like skilled warriors
who do not return empty-handed.
10 So Babylonia[a] will be plundered;(F)
all who plunder her will have their fill,”
declares the Lord.
11 “Because you rejoice and are glad,
you who pillage my inheritance,(G)
because you frolic like a heifer(H) threshing grain
and neigh like stallions,
12 your mother will be greatly ashamed;
she who gave you birth will be disgraced.(I)
She will be the least of the nations—
a wilderness, a dry land, a desert.(J)
13 Because of the Lord’s anger she will not be inhabited
but will be completely desolate.(K)
All who pass Babylon will be appalled;(L)
they will scoff(M) because of all her wounds.(N)
14 “Take up your positions around Babylon,
all you who draw the bow.(O)
Shoot at her! Spare no arrows,(P)
for she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Shout(Q) against her on every side!
She surrenders, her towers fall,
her walls(R) are torn down.
Since this is the vengeance(S) of the Lord,
take vengeance on her;
do to her(T) as she has done to others.(U)
16 Cut off from Babylon the sower,
and the reaper with his sickle at harvest.
Because of the sword(V) of the oppressor
let everyone return to their own people,(W)
let everyone flee to their own land.(X)
