Jeremiah 50:29-31

Revised Standard Version

²⁹“Summon archers against Babylon, all those who bend the bow. Encamp round about her; let no one escape. Requite her according to her deeds, do to her according to all that she has done; for she has proudly defied the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. ³⁰Therefore her young men shall fall in her squares, and all her soldiers shall be destroyed on that day, says the Lord.

³¹“Behold, I am against you, O proud one,
says the Lord God of hosts;
for your day has come,
the time when I will punish you.
