Jeremiah 51:36

³⁸A drought is on her waters, and they will be dried up; for it is a land of engraved images, and they are mad over idols.

¹⁹Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”

¹²I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the needy.

⁴³Rejoice, you nations, with his people, for he will avenge the blood of his servants. He will take vengeance on his adversaries, and will make atonement for his land and for his people.

³⁵Vengeance is mine, and recompense, at the time when their foot slides, for the day of their calamity is at hand. Their doom rushes at them.”

²⁷who says to the deep, ‘Be dry,’ and ‘I will dry up your rivers,’

³⁰For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me. I will repay,” says the Lord.Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”³¹It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

³³He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty ground,

¹LORD,^[+] God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out. ²Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve. ³LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?

¹²The sixth poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates. Its water was dried up, that the way might be prepared for the kings that come from the sunrise.
