Jeremiah 50:9-15

Brenton(i) 9 (27:9) For, behold, I stir up against Babylon the gatherings of nations out of the land of the north; and they shall set themselves in array against her: thence shall she be taken, as the dart of an expert warrior shall not return empty. 10 (27:10) And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied. 11 (27:11) Because ye rejoiced, and boasted, while plundering mine heritage; because ye exulted as calves in the grass, and pushed with the horn as bulls. 12 (27:12) Your mother is greatly ashamed; your mother that bore you for prosperity is confounded: she is the last of the nations, desolate, 13 (27:13) by reason of the Lord's anger: it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be all a desolation; and every one that passes through Babylon shall scowl, and they shall hiss at all her plague. 14 (27:14) Set yourselves in array against Babylon round about, all ye that bend the bow; shoot at her, spare not your arrows, 15 (27:15) and prevail against her: her hands are weakened, her bulwarks are fallen, and her wall is broken down: for it is vengeance from God: take vengeance upon her; as she has done, do to her.
