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.

14 Take up your positions around Babylon,
all you who bend the bow;
shoot at her; spare no arrows,
for she has sinned against the Lord.(A)
15 Raise a shout against her from all sides,
“She has surrendered;
her bulwarks have fallen;
her walls are thrown down.”
For this is the vengeance of the Lord:
take vengeance on her;
do to her as she has done.(B)
16 Cut off from Babylon the sower
and the wielder of the sickle in time of harvest;
because of the destroying sword,
all of them shall return to their own people,
and all of them shall flee to their own land.(C)
