Jeremiah 50:30-32
The Message
Jeremiah 50:30-32
The Message
29-30 “Call in the troops against Babylon,
anyone who can shoot straight!
Tighten the noose!
Leave no loopholes!
Give her back as good as she gave,
a dose of her own medicine!
Her brazen insolence is an outrage
against God, The Holy of Israel.
And now she pays: her young strewn dead in the streets,
her soldiers dead, silent forever.” God’s Decree.
31-32 “Do you get it, Mister Pride? I’m your enemy!”
Decree of the Master, God-of-the-Angel-Armies.
“Time’s run out on you:
That’s right: It’s Doomsday.
Mister Pride will fall flat on his face.
No one will offer him a hand.
I’ll set his towns on fire.
The fire will spread wild through the country.”

30 Therefore, her young men(A) will fall in the streets;
all her soldiers will be silenced in that day,”
declares the Lord.
31 “See, I am against(B) you, you arrogant one,”
declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
“for your day(C) has come,
the time for you to be punished.
32 The arrogant(D) one will stumble and fall(E)
and no one will help her up;(F)
I will kindle a fire(G) in her towns
that will consume all who are around her.”
