Jeremiah 51:11-13

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹¹Sharpen the arrows!
Fill the quivers!
The Lord has put it into the mind
of the kings of the Medes
because His plan is aimed at Babylon
to destroy her,
for it is the Lord’s vengeance,
vengeance for His temple.^(A)
¹²Raise up a signal flag^(B)
against the walls of Babylon;
fortify the watch post;
set the watchmen in place;
prepare the ambush.
For the Lord has both planned and accomplished
what He has threatened
against those who live in Babylon.
¹³You who reside by many waters,^(C)
rich in treasures,
your end has come,
your life thread is cut.
