Jeremiah 50:13-15
Expanded Bible
13 Because of the Lord’s anger,
no one will live there.
She will be completely ·empty [desolate].
Everyone who passes by Babylon will be shocked.
They will shake their heads when they see all her injuries.
14 “Take your positions for war against Babylon,
all ·you soldiers with [L who draw] bows.
Shoot your arrows at Babylon! Do not ·save any of them [L spare any arrows],
because Babylon has sinned against the Lord.
15 ·Soldiers around Babylon [L On every side], shout the war cry!
Babylon has surrendered, her ·towers [defenses] have fallen,
and her walls have been ·torn down [demolished].
The Lord is giving her people the punishment they deserve.
·You nations should give her what she deserves;
do to her what she has done to others [L Just as it did, they did].
