Jeremiah 51:11-14

American Standard Version

¹¹ Make ^[a]sharp the arrows; ^[b]hold firm the ^[c]shields: Jehovah hath stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes; because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it: for it is the vengeance of Jehovah, the vengeance of his temple. ¹² Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set the watchmen, prepare the ambushes; for Jehovah hath both purposed and done that which he spake concerning the inhabitants of Babylon. ¹³ O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, the measure of thy ^[d]covetousness. ¹⁴ Jehovah of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying, ^[e]Surely I will fill thee with men, as with the canker-worm; ^[f]and they shall lift up a shout against thee.
