Jeremiah 50:2-10

2“1DeclareH5046 and proclaimH8085 among the nationsH1471. ProclaimH8085 it and 2liftH5375 upH5375 a flagH5251, Do not concealH3582 it. SayH559, ‘3BabylonH894 has been capturedH3920, 4BelH1078 has been putH954 toH954 shameH954, 5MardukH4781 has beenH2865 6shatteredH2865; Her 7idolsH6091 have been putH954 toH954 shameH954, her imagesH1544 have beenH2865 shatteredH2865.’ 3For a nationH1471 has comeH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 her from the 8northH6828; it will makeH7896 her landH776 9an objectH8047 ofH8047 horrorH8047, and there will be 10noH3808 inhabitantH3427 in it. WhetherH4480 peopleH120 orH5704 animalsH929, they have wanderedH5110 offH5110, they have goneH1980!

4“In thoseH1992 daysH3117 and at that timeH6256,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 will comeH935, they and the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 11asH3164 wellH3164; they will goH1980 along 12weepingH1058 as they goH1980, and it will be 13the LordH3068 their GodH430 whom they will seekH1245. 5They will 14askH7592 for the wayH1870 to ZionH6726, turning their facesH6440 15in its directionH2008; 16they 17will comeH935 so that they may joinH3867 themselves to the LordH3068 in an 18everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 that will not be forgottenH7911.

6“My peopleH5971 have becomeH1961 19lostH6 sheepH6629; 20Their shepherdsH7462 have ledH8582 them astrayH8582. They have made them turnH7725 asideH7725 on the 21mountainsH2022. They have goneH1980 from mountainH2022 to hillH1389, They have forgottenH7911 their 22restingH7258 placeH7258.7AllH3605 who foundH4672 them have devouredH398 them; And their adversariesH6862 have saidH559, ‘23We are not guiltyH816, SinceH8478H834 they have sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068 who is the 24habitationH5116 of righteousnessH6664, The LordH3068, the 25hopeH4723 of their fathersH1.’

8“WanderH5110 awayH5110 from the 26midstH8432 of BabylonH894 And 27goH3318 outH3318 from the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; Be like maleH6260 goatsH6260 28at the headH6440 of the flockH6629.9For beholdH2009, I am going to 29rouseH5782 and bringH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 BabylonH894 A contingentH6951 of greatH1419 nationsH1471 from the landH776 of the northH6828, And they will drawH6186 upH6186 their battleH6186 linesH6186 against her; From thereH8033 she will be takenH3920 captiveH3920. Their arrowsH2671 will be like 30an expertH7919 warriorH1368 Who does not returnH7725 empty-handedH7387.103132ChaldeaH3778 will becomeH1961 plunderH7998; AllH3605 who plunderH7997 her will haveH7646 enoughH7646,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.
