Jeremiah 51:11

A Message Concerning Babylon

¹⁰ The Lord has brought about our vindication;
come, let’s tell in Zion
what the Lord our God has accomplished. ¹¹ Sharpen the arrows!
Fill the quivers!
The Lord has put it into the mind
of the kings of the Medes
because His plan is aimed at Babylon
to destroy her,
for it is the Lord’s vengeance,
vengeance for His temple.
¹² Raise up a signal flag
against the walls of Babylon;
fortify the watch post;
set the watchmen in place;
prepare the ambush.
For the Lord has both planned and accomplished
what He has threatened
against those who live in Babylon.
