Jeremiah 50:33-35
New Catholic Bible
33 Thus says the Lord of hosts:
The people of Israel are oppressed,
as are the people of Judah.
All their captors hold them fast
and refuse to let them go.
34 But their redeemer[a] is strong;
his name is the Lord of hosts.
He will successfully take up their cause,
thereby affording rest to the earth
while leaving the inhabitants of Babylon in turmoil.
35 A sword against the Chaldeans, says the Lord,
against the inhabitants of Babylon,
and against her officials and her wise men.
