Jeremiah 50:32-34
Expanded Bible
32 The ·proud [arrogant; C Babylon] will stumble and fall,
and no one will help her get up.
I will ·start [kindle] a fire in her towns,
and it will ·burn up [L devour] everything around her.”
33 This is what the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] says:
“The people of Israel
and Judah are ·slaves [oppressed].
·The enemy took them as prisoners [L Their captors have seized them]
and won’t let them go.
34 But ·God is strong and will buy them back [L their redeemer is strong].
His name is the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts].
He will surely ·defend them with power [take up their cause/case]
so he can give rest to their land.
But ·he will not give rest [turmoil] to those living in Babylon.”
