Jeremiah 50:8-10
Easy-to-Read Version
8 “Run away from Babylon.
Leave the land of the Babylonians.
Be like the goats that lead the flock.
9 I will bring many nations together from the north.
This group of nations will get ready for war against Babylon.
Babylon will be captured by people from the north.
Those nations will shoot many arrows at Babylon.
Their arrows will be like soldiers
who don’t come back from war with their hands empty.
10 The enemy will take all the wealth from the Chaldeans.
The soldiers will take all they want.”
This is what the Lord said.
Jeremiah 50:8-10

8 “Flee(A) out of Babylon;(B)
leave the land of the Babylonians,
and be like the goats that lead the flock.
9 For I will stir(C) up and bring against Babylon
an alliance of great nations(D) from the land of the north.(E)
They will take up their positions against her,
and from the north she will be captured.(F)
Their arrows(G) will be like skilled warriors
who do not return empty-handed.
10 So Babylonia[a] will be plundered;(H)
all who plunder her will have their fill,”
declares the Lord.
