Jeremiah 50:12-14

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹² your mother will be utterly humiliated;
she who bore you will be put to shame.
Look! She will lag behind all^[a] the nations—
a dry land, a wilderness,^(A) an Arabah.
¹³ Because of the Lord’s wrath,
she will not be inhabited;
she will become a desolation, every bit of her.
Everyone who passes through Babylon
will be horrified
and scoff because of all her wounds.^(B)
14 Line up in battle formation around Babylon,
all you archers!
Shoot at her! Do not spare an arrow,
for she has sinned against the Lord.
