Jeremiah 50:17-19

New International Reader's Version

¹⁷ “Israel is like a scattered flock
    that lions have chased away.
The first lion that ate them up
    was the king of Assyria.
The last one that broke their bones
    was Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon.”

“I punished the king of Assyria.
    In the same way, I will punish
    the king of Babylon and his land.
¹⁹ But I will bring Israel back to their own grasslands.
    I will feed them on Mount Carmel and in Bashan.
I will satisfy their hunger
    on the hills of Ephraim and Gilead.
