Jeremiah 50:30-36 Modern English Version (MEV)

30. Therefore her young men shall fall in the streets,and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day,says the Lord.

31. I am against you, O most proud,says the Lord God of Hosts,for your day has come,the time when I will punish you.

32. The most proud will stumble and fall,and no one will raise him up;and I will kindle a fire in his cities,and it will devour all all around him.

33. Thus says the Lord of Hosts: The sons of Israel and the sons of Judahwere oppressed together;and all who 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 will thoroughly plead their case,that He may give rest to the land,but disquiet to the inhabitants of Babylon.

35. A sword is against the Chaldeans,says the Lord,and against the inhabitants of Babylon,and against her officials, and against her wise men.

36. A sword is against the oracle priests,and they will become fools.A sword is against her mighty men,and they shall be dismayed.
