Jeremiah 50:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 Israel is like scattered sheep: the lions have dispersed them: first the king of [a]Assyria hath devoured him, and last this Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel hath broken his [b]bones.
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, Behold, I will visit the king of Babel, and his land, as I have visited the King of Assyria.
19 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation: he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon the mount Ephraim and Gilead.
