Jeremiah 51:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 Let not him who bends the bow shoot his bow,
and let him not rise high in his body armor.
And you must not spare her young men;
destroy her whole army.
4 And they will fall slain in the land of the Chaldeans,
and pierced through in her streets.
5 For neither Israel nor Judah is a widower from their God,
from Yahweh of hosts,
though their land is full of guilt
against the Holy One of Israel.”
Jeremiah 51:3-5
New International Version
3 Let not the archer string his bow,(A)
nor let him put on his armor.(B)
Do not spare her young men;
completely destroy[a] her army.
4 They will fall(C) down slain in Babylon,[b]
fatally wounded in her streets.(D)
5 For Israel and Judah have not been forsaken(E)
by their God, the Lord Almighty,
though their land[c] is full of guilt(F)
before the Holy One of Israel.
