Jeremiah 50:14-16

New Catholic Bible

¹⁴ Take up your positions and surround Babylon,
    all you who draw the bow.
Shoot at her, and do not spare your arrows,
    for she has sinned against the Lord.^[a]
15 Raise your war cries against her on all sides;
    shout in triumph,
“She has surrendered,
    her bastions have fallen,
    her walls have been demolished.”
This is the vengeance of the Lord.
    Avenge yourselves on her;
    as she has done, so do to her.
¹⁶ Drive out from Babylon the sowers
    and those who wield the sickle at harvest time.
To escape the destroying sword,
    all of them will return to their own people;
    all of them will flee to their own land.
