Jeremiah 51:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 Also to the bender that bendeth his bow, and to him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine, will I say, Spare not her young men, but destroy all her host.
4 Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streets.
5 For Israel hath been no [a]widow, nor Judah from his God, from the Lord of hosts, though their land was filled with sin against the holy one of Israel.
