Jeremiah 50:44-46
Lexham English Bible
44 Look, like a lion he comes up from the thickets[a] of the Jordan
against a pastureland by a constantly flowing stream,[b]
so I will chase them away quickly[c] from her,
and I will appoint whoever is chosen over her.
For who is like me, and who can summon me,
and who is this shepherd who can stand before me?[d]
45 Therefore[e] hear the plan of Yahweh
that he has planned against Babylon,
and his plans
that he has planned against the land of the Chaldeans.
Surely[f] they will drag them away,
the little ones of the flock.
Surely[g] he will cause their grazing place
to be desolate over them.
46 At the sound, ‘Babylon has been captured,’
the earth will quake,
and a cry for help among the nations
will be heard.”
