O most haughty one!” says the Lord God of hosts;
“For your day has come,
1The time that I will punish you.
And no one will raise him up;
bI will kindle a fire in his cities,
And it will devour all around him.”
“The children of Israel were oppressed,
Along with the children of Judah;
All who took them captive have held them fast;
They have refused to let them go.
bThe Lord of hosts is His name.
He will thoroughly plead their ccase,
That He may give rest to the land,
And disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
“Against the inhabitants of Babylon,
And aagainst her princes and bher wise men.
A sword is against her mighty men, and they will be dismayed.
| << Jeremiah 50:32 | Jeremiah 50:34 >> |
