The Archer’s Bow
“Because of the Lord’s anger she will not be inhabited
JERIMIAH 50:13-16
but will be completely desolate.
All who pass Babylon will be appalled;
they will scoff because of all her wounds.
‘Take up your positions around Babylon,
all you who draw the bow.
Shoot at her! Spare no arrows,
for she has sinned against the Lord.
Shout against her on every side!
She surrenders, her towers fall,
her walls are torn down.
Since this is the vengeance of the Lord,
take vengeance on her;
do to her as she has done to others.
Cut off from Babylon the sower,
and the reaper with his sickle at harvest.
Because of the sword of the oppressor
let everyone return to their own people,
let everyone flee to their own land.'”
