Jeremiah 51:2-4

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

² and I will send winnowers to Babylon,
    and they shall winnow her.
They shall empty her land
    when they come against her from every side
    on the day of trouble.^(A)
3 Let not the archer bend his bow,
    and let him not array himself in his coat of mail.
Do not spare her young men;
    utterly destroy her entire army.^(B)
4 They shall fall down slain in the land of the Chaldeans
    and wounded in her streets.
