Jeremiah 50:14-16
English Standard Version
14 (A)Set yourselves in array against Babylon all around,
(B)all you who bend the bow;
shoot at her, spare no arrows,
(C)for she has sinned against the Lord.
15 (D)Raise a shout against her all around;
she has surrendered;
her bulwarks have fallen;
(E)her walls are thrown down.
For (F)this is the vengeance of the Lord:
take vengeance on her;
(G)do to her as she has done.
16 Cut off from Babylon the sower,
and the one who handles the sickle in time of harvest;
(H)because of the sword of the oppressor,
(I)every one shall turn to his own people,
and every one shall flee to his own land.
Jeremiah 50:14-16
Holman Christian Standard Bible
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.
15 Raise a war cry against her on every side!
She has thrown up her hands in surrender;
her defense towers have fallen;
her walls are demolished.(A)
Since this is the Lord’s vengeance,(B)
take out your vengeance on her;
as she has done, do the same to her.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon
as well as him who wields the sickle at harvest time.
Because of the oppressor’s sword,(C)
each will turn to his own people,(D)
each will flee to his own land.
