Jeremiah 50:30-32

New International Reader's Version

³⁰ You can be sure its young men will fall dead in the streets.
    All its soldiers will be put to death at that time,”
    announces the Lord.
³¹ “Proud Babylonians, I am against you,”
    announces the Lord.
The Lord who rules over all says,
    “Your day to be judged has come.
    It is time for you to be punished.
³² You proud people will trip and fall.
    No one will help you up.
I will start a fire in your towns.
    It will burn up everyone around you.”
