Jeremiah 50:23-25

Expanded Bible

²³ ·Babylon was the hammer of the whole earth,
    but how broken and shattered that hammer is now [^LHow cut down and broken is the hammer of the whole earth].
·It is truly the most ruined
    of [^LHow Babylon has become a horror among] all the nations.
²⁴ I set a trap for you [^CBabylon],
    and you were caught before you knew it.
You ·fought against [challenged] the Lord,
    so you were found and ·taken prisoner [captured].
²⁵ The Lord has opened up his storeroom
    and brought out the weapons of his anger,
because the Lord God ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; ^Tof hosts] has work to do
    in the land of the ·Babylonians [^LChaldeans].
