Jeremiah 6 - Listen
4 Prepare ye war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe unto us! for the day goeth away,for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace;when there is no peace.
23 They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roareth like the sea; and they ride upon horses, set in array as men for war against thee, O daughter of Zion.
26 O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes: make thee mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us.
| Jeremiah 50 - Listen
5 They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us joinourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.
6 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away * on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.
8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth * out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks.
12 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermostof the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.
39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls * shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle,against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes,that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make thei r habitation desolate with them.

Jeremiah 6 - Listen
3 The shepherds with their flocks shall come unto her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place.
4 Prepare ye war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe unto us! for the day goeth away,for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
7 As a fountain casteth out her waters, so she casteth out her wickedness: violence and spoil is heard in her; before me continually is grief and wounds.
9 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall throughly glean the remnant of Israel as a vine: turn backthine hand as a grapegatherer into the baskets.
10 To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
11 Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.
12 And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD.
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace;when there is no peace.
17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts,because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.
20 To what purpose cometh there to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a farcountry? your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.
23 They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roareth like the sea; and they ride upon horses, set in array as men for war against thee, O daughter of Zion.
24 We have heard the fame thereof: our hands wax feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
26 O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes: make thee mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us.

1 The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans byJeremiah the prophet.
2 Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.
5 They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us joinourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.
6 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away * on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.
7 All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.
8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth * out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks.
9 For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken:their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man; * none shall return in vain.
12 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
14 Put yourselves in array against Babylon round about: all ye that bend the bow, shoot at her, spare no arrows: for she hath sinned against the LORD.
15 Shout against her round about: she hath given her hand: her foundations are fallen, her wallsare thrown down: for it is the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do unto her.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land.
28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
29 Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.
33 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressedtogether: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go.
34 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause,that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
37 A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled peoplethat are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.
38 A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images,and they are mad upon their idols.
39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls * shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
40 As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy:their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
43 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble:anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flockshall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
46 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.

39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls * shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle,against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes,that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make thei r habitation desolate with them.

Jeremiah 6 - Listen
1 O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the north,and great destruction.
3 The shepherds with their flocks shall come unto her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place.
8 Be thou instructed, O Jerusalem, lest my soul depart from thee; lest I make thee desolate, a landnot inhabited.
12 And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD.
13 For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness;and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace;when there is no peace.
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.
20 To what purpose cometh there to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a farcountry? your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.
21 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his friend shall perish.
22 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, a people cometh from the north country, and a great nation shall be raised from the sides of the earth.
26 O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes: make thee mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon us.
27 I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among my people, that thou mayest know and try their way.
| Jeremiah 50 - Listen
1 The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans byJeremiah the prophet.
2 Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say,Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.
3 For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her landdesolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.
4 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.
5 They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us joinourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.
6 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away * on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.
8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth * out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks.
9 For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nationsfrom the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man; * none shall return in vain.
12 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermostof the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land.
18 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
21 Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod:waste and utterly destroy after them, saith the LORD, and do according to all that I have commandedthee.
23 How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
25 The LORD hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
26 Come against her from the utmost border, open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left.
27 Slay all her bullocks; let them go down to the slaughter: woe unto them! for their day is come,the time of their visitation.
28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come,the time that I will visit thee.
34 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
38 A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images,and they are mad upon their idols.
41 Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kingsshall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes,that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
46 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.
