Jeremiah 50:29-35

29SummonH8085 the archersH7228 againstH413 BabylonH894, allH3605 who stringH1869 the bowH7198. EncampH2583 H5921 all around herH5439; let no oneH408 H1961 escapeH6413. RepayH7999 her according to her deedsH6467; doH6213 to her asH3605 she has doneH6213. ForH3588 she has defiedH2102 H413 the LORDH3068 , the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478.30ThereforeH3651, her young menH970 will fallH5307 in the streetsH7339, and allH3605 her warriorsH582 H4421 will be silencedH1826 in thatH1931 dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.31“BeholdH2005, I am against youH413, O arrogant oneH2087,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of HostsH6635, “forH3588 your dayH3117 has comeH935, the timeH6256 when I will punish youH6485.32The arrogant oneH2087 will stumbleH3782 and fallH5307 with noH369 one to pick him upH6965. And I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in his citiesH5892 to consumeH398 all thoseH3605 around himH5439.”

33This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 saysH559:

“The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 are oppressedH6231,and the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 as wellH3162.AllH3605 their captorsH7617 hold them fastH2388,refusingH3985 to release themH7971.34Their RedeemerH1350 is strongH2389;the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 is His nameH8034.He will fervently pleadH7378 their caseH7379so thatH4616 He may bring restH7280 to the earthH776,but turmoilH7264 to those who liveH3427 in BabylonH894.

35A swordH2719 is againstH5921 the ChaldeansH3778,declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,againstH413 those who liveH3427 in BabylonH894,and againstH413 her officialsH8269 andH413 wise menH2450.
