Jeremiah 50:33-34

33 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: ^aThe people of Israel are oppressed, and the people of Judah with them. All who took them captive have held them fast; ^bthey refuse to let them go. 34 ^cTheir Redeemer is strong; ^dthe Lord of hosts is his name. ^eHe will surely plead their cause, that he may give rest to the earth, but unrest to the inhabitants of Babylon.
