Context of Jeremiah 50:10

8Flee from the midst of Babylon; depart from the land of the Chaldeans; be like the he-goats that lead the flock. 9For behold, I stir up and bring against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the land of the north. They will line up against her; from the north she will be captured. Their arrows will be like skilled warriors who do not return empty-handed. Chaldea will be plundered; all who plunder her will have their fill,” declares the LORD. 11“Because you rejoice, because you sing in triumph— you who plunder My inheritance— because you frolic like a heifer treading grain and neigh like stallions, 12your mother will be greatly ashamed; she who bore you will be disgraced. Behold, she will be the least of the nations, a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10Or, “Chaldaea shall become a spoil … for thou wast glad, thou exultedst, ye plunderers of mine heritage.” Because ye are grown fat - Rather, for thou leapedst, skippedst as an animal does when playing. As the heifer at grass - Or, as a heifer threshing. When threshing cattle were allowed to eat their fill Deuteronomy 25:4, and so grew playful. Bellow as bulls - Better as in the margin.Read the comment

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 4-10This poem gave hope to the Israelite exiles in Babylon. It contrasted with the judgment and oppression they faced. The divine Judge is also the divine Savior.Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1-46After the predictions of judgment to be inflicted on other nations by Babylon, follows this one against Babylon itself, the longest prophecy, consisting of one hundred verses. The date of utterance was the fourth year of Zedekiah, when Seraiah, to whom it was committed, was sent to Babylon (Jr 51:59, 60).
