Jeremiah:50:9-15
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For ,
lo ,
I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country :
and they shall set themselves in array against her ;
from thence she shall be taken :
their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man (
8676 );
none shall return in vain .
*
And Chaldea shall be a spoil :
all that spoil her shall be satisfied ,
saith the LORD .
*
Because ye were glad ,
because ye rejoiced ,
O ye destroyers of mine heritage ,
because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass ,
and bellow as bulls ;
*
Your mother shall be sore confounded ;
she that bare you shall be ashamed :
behold ,
the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness ,
a dry land ,
and a desert .
*
Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited ,
but it shall be wholly desolate :
every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished ,
and hiss at all her plagues .
*
Put yourselves in array against Babylon round about :
all ye that bend the bow ,
shoot at her ,
spare no arrows :
for she hath sinned against the LORD .
*
Shout against her round about :
she hath given her hand :
her foundations are fallen ,
her walls are thrown down :
for it is the vengeance of the LORD :
take vengeance upon her ;
as she hath done ,
do unto her .
