Jeremiah 51:3-5

International Standard Version

³ Don’t let the archer^[a] bend the bow;
    don’t let him rise up in his armor.
Don’t spare her young men.
    Completely destroy her entire army.
⁴ The slain will fall in the land of Chaldea,
    pierced through in her streets.
⁵ Indeed, Israel and Judah haven’t been
    abandoned^[b] by their^[c] God,
by the Lord of the Heavenly Armies,
    although their land is full of guilt
        against the Holy One of Israel.”
