Watch out! For I am bringing in the Chaldeans, that cruel and impetuous people, who sweep across the earth dispossessing people from homes not their own.

Their horses are swifter than leopards, and more cunning than wolves that attack at night. Their horsemen are galloping as they approach from far away. They swoop in like ravenous vultures.

They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.

Then shall he sweep by as a wind, and shall pass over, and be guilty, even he whose might is his god.
