Jeremiah 50:7-9

New Catholic Bible

⁷ Whoever came upon them devoured them,
    and their enemies insisted,
    “We incur no guilt,
because they have sinned
    against the Lord, their true pasture,
    against the Lord, the hope of their fathers.”
⁸ Flee from Babylon and the land of the Chaldeans;
    be like male goats leading the flock.
⁹ Behold, I will stir up against Babylon
    a host of mighty nations from the land of the north.
They will advance against her,
    and there she will be conquered.
Their arrows are like those of a skilled warrior
    that are never shot unsuccessfully.
