EasyEnglish Bible
Jeremiah 50:14-16
EasyEnglish Bible
14 ‘Get ready to fight, all you soldiers who have bows and arrows.
Stand in your places around Babylon.
Shoot your arrows into the city! Shoot all of them!
Punish Babylon, because its people have turned against the Lord.
15 Shout as you attack the city from all sides.
Its people are ready to stop fighting.
Its strong towers will fall down.
You will knock down its walls.
The Lord is punishing Babylon,
so punish the people for their sins!
Do the same thing to them that they have done to other people.
16 Remove from Babylon all the farmers who plant crops.
Remove all the people who cut the crops at harvest time.
The foreigners must return to their own homes.
They must run away to escape from the enemy army.’

Jeremiah 50:14-16
New International Version
14 “Take up your positions around Babylon,
all you who draw the bow.(A)
Shoot at her! Spare no arrows,(B)
for she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Shout(C) against her on every side!
She surrenders, her towers fall,
her walls(D) are torn down.
Since this is the vengeance(E) of the Lord,
take vengeance on her;
do to her(F) as she has done to others.(G)
16 Cut off from Babylon the sower,
and the reaper with his sickle at harvest.
Because of the sword(H) of the oppressor
let everyone return to their own people,(I)
let everyone flee to their own land.(J)
