Jeremiah 51:11
Berean Standard Bible
Sharpen the arrows! Fill the quivers!* The LORD has aroused the spirit of the kings of the Medes, because His plan is aimed at Babylon to destroy her, for it is the vengeance of the LORD— vengeance for His temple.
Context
9“We tried to heal Babylon,
but she could not be healed.
Abandon her!
Let each of us go to his own land,
for her judgment extends to the sky
and reaches to the clouds.” 10“The LORD has brought forth our vindication;
come, let us tell in Zion
what the LORD our God has accomplished.” 11Sharpen the arrows!
Fill the quivers!*
The LORD has aroused the spirit
of the kings of the Medes,
because His plan is aimed at Babylon
to destroy her,
for it is the vengeance of the LORD—
vengeance for His temple. 12Raise a banner against the walls of Babylon;
post the guard;
station the watchmen;
prepare the ambush.
For the LORD has both devised and accomplished
what He spoke against the people of Babylon. 13You who dwell by many waters,
rich in treasures,
your end has come;
the thread of your life is cut.
