Jeremiah 51:2-4 New International Version (NIV)

2. I will send foreigners to Babylon to winnow her and to devastate her land; they will oppose her on every side in the day of her disaster.

3. Let not the archer string his bow, nor let him put on his armor. Do not spare her young men; completely destroy her army.

4. They will fall down slain in Babylon, fatally wounded in her streets.
