24:050:008 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the
           land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the
           flocks.

24:050:009 For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an
           assembly of great nations from the north country:  and they
           shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she
           shall be taken:  their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert
           man; none shall return in vain.

24:050:010 And Chaldea shall be a spoil:  all that spoil her shall be
           satisfied, saith the lord.

24:050:011 Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of
           mine heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at
           grass, and bellow as bulls;

24:050:012 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall
           be ashamed:  behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a
           wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.

24:050:013 Because of the wrath of the lord it shall not be inhabited,
           but it shall be wholly desolate:  every one that goeth by
           Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.

24:050:014 Put yourselves in array against Babylon round about:  all ye
           that bend the bow, shoot at her, spare no arrows:  for she hath
           sinned against the lord.

24:050:015 Shout against her round about:  she hath given her hand:  her
           foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down:  for it is
           the vengeance of the lord:  take vengeance upon her; as she
           hath done, do unto her.

24:050:016 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the
           sickle in the time of harvest:  for fear of the oppressing
           sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall
           flee every one to his own land.

24:050:017 Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: 
           first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this
           Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.

24:050:018 Therefore thus saith the lord of hosts, the God of Israel;
           Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I
           have punished the king of Assyria.

24:050:019 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation, and he shall
           feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied
           upon mount Ephraim and Gilead.

24:050:020 In those days, and in that time, saith the lord, the iniquity
           of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and
           the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found:  for I will
           pardon them whom I reserve.
