Jeremiah 50:29-40
29CallH8085 togetherH5921 the archersH7198 againstH5921 BabylonH894, allH3605 them that bendH1869 the bowH7198; campH2583 againstH5921 herH3605 roundH5439 aboutH1961; letH408 noneH3605 thereof escapeH6413: recompense herH3605 accordingH5921 to herH3605 workH6467; accordingH5921 to allH3605 that sheH834 hath doneH6213, doH6213 unto herH3605: for sheH834 hath been proud againstH5921 the LORDH3068, againstH5921 the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478.
30Therefore shall herH3605 youngH970 menH376 fallH5307 in herH3605 streetsH7339, and allH3605 herH3605 menH376 of warH4421 shall be brought to silence in that dayH3117, saith the LORDH3068.
31BeholdH2005, I am againstH413 thee, O thou proud one, saith the LordH136, the LORDH136 of hostsH6635: for thy dayH3117 is comeH935, the time that I will visitH6485 thee.
32And the proud one shall stumbleH3782 and fallH5307, and noneH369 shall raiseH6965 him upH6965: and I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in his citiesH5892, and it shall devourH398 allH3605 that are roundH5439 aboutH5439 him.
33ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635: The childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 are oppressedH6231 togetherH3162: and allH3605 that tookH2388 them captivesH7617 holdH2388 them fastH2388; they refuseH3985 to letH7971 them goH7971.
34Their redeemerH1350 is strongH2389; the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034: he shall throughly pleadH7378 their causeH7379, that he may give restH7280 to the earthH776, and disquiet the inhabitantsH3427 of BabylonH894.
35A swordH2719 is uponH5921 the ChaldeansH3778, saith the LORDH3068, and uponH5921 the inhabitantsH3427 of BabylonH894, and uponH5921 herH413 princesH8269, and uponH5921 herH413 wiseH2450 menH2450.
36A swordH2719 is uponH413 the boastersH907, and they shall dote: a swordH2719 is uponH413 herH413 mightyH1368 menH1368, and they shall be dismayedH2865.
37A swordH2719 is uponH1961 their horseH5483, and uponH1961 their chariotsH7393, and uponH1961 allH3605 the mingledH8432 peopleH834 that are in the midstH8432 of herH3605, and they shall becomeH1961 as womenH802: a swordH2719 is uponH1961 herH3605 treasuresH214, and they shall be robbed.
38A drought is uponH413 herH413 watersH4325, and they shall be driedH3001 upH3001: for it is a landH776 of gravenH6456 imagesH6456, and they are mad uponH413 idolsH6456.
39Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wolvesH338 shall dwellH3427 there, and the ostrichesH3284 shall dwellH3427 therein: and it shall be noH3808 moreH5750 inhabitedH3427 for everH5331; neitherH3808 shall it be dweltH3427 in from generationH1755 to generationH1755.
40As when GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORDH3068; soH3808 shall noH3808 manH376 dwellH3427 there, neitherH3808 shall anyH376 sonH1121 of manH376 sojourn therein.
