50:24 I set a trap for you, Babylon;
you were caught before you knew it.
You fought against me.
So you were found and captured.
50:25 I have opened up the place where my weapons are stored.
I have brought out the weapons for carrying out my wrath.
For I, the Lord God who rules over all,
have work to carry out in the land of Babylonia.
50:26 Come from far away and attack Babylonia!
Open up the places where she stores her grain!
Pile her up in ruins!
Do not leave anyone alive!
50:27 Kill all her soldiers!
Let them be slaughtered!
They are doomed,
the time for them to be punished.”
50:28 Listen! Fugitives and refugees are coming from the land of Babylon.
They are coming to Zion to declare there
how the Lord our God is getting revenge,
getting revenge for what they have done to his temple.
