Jeremiah 50:35-40

Jubilee Bible 2000

³⁵ A sword is upon the Chaldeans, said the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon and upon her princes and upon her wise men.

³⁶ A sword is upon the fortune-tellers; and they shall be fools: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be broken.

³⁷ A sword is upon their horses and upon their chariots and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women; a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.

³⁸ A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up; for it is the land of graven images, and they are become mad upon their idols.

³⁹ Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall no longer be inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.

⁴⁰ As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
