Jeremiah 51:2-4
New Life Version
Jeremiah 51:2-4
New Life Version
2 I will send strangers to destroy Babylon like a wind that blows straw away. For they will be against her on every side and leave her land empty in the day of her trouble. 3 Do not let the bow-man use his bow. Do not let him stand up in his heavy battle-clothes. Do not leave her young men alive, but destroy all of her army. 4 They will fall down dead in the land of Babylon and be killed in their streets.”
