Jeremiah 50:24-26

New International Reader's Version

²⁴ Babylon, I set a trap for you.
    And you were caught before you knew it.
You were found and captured.
    That is because you opposed me.
²⁵ I have opened up my storeroom.
    I have brought out the weapons I use when I am angry.
I am the Lord and King who rules over all.
    I have work to do in the land of the Babylonians.
²⁶ So come against it from far away.
    Open up its storerooms.
    Stack everything up like piles of grain.
Completely destroy that country.
    Do not leave anyone alive there.
