Jeremiah 50:37

Read in context

Jeremiah 50:35–39 · Berean Standard Bible

35 A sword is against the Chaldeans, declares the LORD, against those who live in Babylon, and against her officials and wise men.

36 A sword is against her false prophets, and they will become fools. A sword is against her warriors, and they will be filled with terror.

37 A sword is against her horses and chariots and against all the foreigners in her midst, and they will become like women. A sword is against her treasuries, and they will be plundered.

38 A drought is upon her waters, and they will be dried up. For it is a land of graven images, and the people go mad over idols.

39 So the desert creatures and hyenas will live there and ostriches will dwell there. It will never again be inhabited or lived in from generation to generation.
