Jeremiah 50:28-30
EasyEnglish Bible
28 Listen! People have run away from the war in Babylon. Now they are arriving in Jerusalem. They will tell the news in Zion about how the Lord is punishing Babylon. He is punishing the people of Babylon because they destroyed his temple.
29 ‘Bring all the soldiers with bows and arrows to attack Babylon.
They must make their camp all around the city.
Do not let anyone escape.
Punish the people for the things that they have done.
Do the same thing to them that they have done to others.
Those people have insulted me, Israel's holy God.
30 So Babylon's young men will die in its streets.
All its soldiers will die in battle on that day.’
That is what the Lord says.

Jeremiah 50:28-30
New International Version
28 Listen to the fugitives(A) and refugees from Babylon
declaring in Zion(B)
how the Lord our God has taken vengeance,(C)
vengeance for his temple.(D)
29 “Summon archers against Babylon,
all those who draw the bow.(E)
Encamp all around her;
let no one escape.(F)
Repay(G) her for her deeds;(H)
do to her as she has done.
For she has defied(I) the Lord,
the Holy One(J) of Israel.
30 Therefore, her young men(K) will fall in the streets;
all her soldiers will be silenced in that day,”
declares the Lord.
