Jeremiah 50:14-16

Good News Translation

¹⁴ “Archers, line up for battle against Babylon and surround it. Shoot all your arrows at Babylon, because it has sinned against me, the Lord. ¹⁵ Raise the war cry all around the city! Now Babylon has surrendered. Its walls have been broken through and torn down.^[a] I am taking my revenge on the Babylonians. So take your revenge on them, and treat them as they have treated others. ¹⁶ Do not let seeds be planted in that country nor let a harvest be gathered. Every foreigner living there will be afraid of the attacking army and will go back home.”
