Jeremiah 50:13-15
Easy-to-Read Version
13 The Lord will show his anger,
so no one will live there.
Babylon will be completely empty.
Everyone who passes by Babylon will be afraid.
They will shake their heads when they see how badly it has been destroyed.
14 “Prepare for war against Babylon.
All you soldiers with bows, shoot your arrows at Babylon.
Don’t save any of your arrows.
Babylon has sinned against the Lord.
15 Soldiers around Babylon, shout the cry of victory!
Babylon has surrendered!
Her walls and towers have been pulled down!
The Lord is giving her people the punishment they deserve.
You nations should give Babylon the punishment she deserves.
Do to her what she has done to other nations.
Jeremiah 50:13-15
New International Version
13 Because of the Lord’s anger she will not be inhabited
but will be completely desolate.(A)
All who pass Babylon will be appalled;(B)
they will scoff(C) because of all her wounds.(D)
14 “Take up your positions around Babylon,
all you who draw the bow.(E)
Shoot at her! Spare no arrows,(F)
for she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Shout(G) against her on every side!
She surrenders, her towers fall,
her walls(H) are torn down.
Since this is the vengeance(I) of the Lord,
take vengeance on her;
do to her(J) as she has done to others.(K)
