Jeremiah 50:23-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ Babylon attacked other nations of the world,
like a hammer that breaks things into pieces.
But now that hammer has broken into pieces.
Now the other nations see that Babylon is a disgusting place.
²⁴ Babylon, I put a trap to catch you,
and you did not know about it.
Now I have caught you in my trap,
because you fought against me.
²⁵ I have taken out my weapons from the place where I had stored them.
I will use those weapons to punish the people of Babylonia,
because I am very angry with them.^[a]
I am the Lord God Almighty.
I have work to do in the land of Babylonia.
