Jeremiah

Jeremiah 50:27–28

²⁷Kill all her young bulls;

let them go down to the slaughter.

Woe to them, for their day has come —

the time of their punishment.

²⁸Listen to the fugitives and refugees

from the land of Babylon,

declaring in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God,

the vengeance for His temple.
