Jeremiah 51:3-5
Jubilee Bible 2000
3 I shall say to the archer that bends his bow and unto him that lifts himself up in his brigandine, Spare ye not her young men; utterly destroy all her host.
4 Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans and those that are thrust through in her streets.
5 For Israel and Judah have not been made widows of their God, of the LORD of the hosts, though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
