Jeremiah 15:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² “People of Judah, the armies of Babylon
    will come from the north.
They are as strong as iron and bronze.
    Can anyone break their power?
¹³ I will give away your wealth and your treasures.
    Your enemies will carry off everything.
    And they will not pay anything for it.
That will happen because you have sinned so much.
    You have done it throughout your country.
¹⁴ I will make you slaves to your enemies.
    You will serve them in a land
    you have not known about before.
My anger will start a fire
    that will burn you up.”
