Jeremiah 50:33 In-Context

31 "Babylon, you are too proud, and I am against you," says the Lord God All-Powerful. "The time has come for you to be punished.
32 Proud Babylon will stumble and fall, and no one will help her get up. I will start a fire in her towns, and it will burn up everything around her."
33 This is what the Lord All-Powerful says: "The people of Israel and Judah are slaves. The enemy took them as prisoners and won't let them go.
34 But God is strong and will buy them back. His name is the Lord All-Powerful. He will surely defend them with power so he can give rest to their land. But he will not give rest to those living in Babylon."
35 The Lord says, "Let a sword kill the people living in Babylon and her officers and wise men!
