And they were broken by divisions, nation against nation and town against town, because God sent all sorts of trouble on them.

And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of those who violently took their property, and into the hands of their haters all round them, so that they were forced to give way before them.

Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not recorded in the words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

And Abijah and his people put them to death with great destruction: five hundred thousand of the best of Israel were put to the sword.

So the Lord sent against them the captains of the army of Assyria, who made Manasseh a prisoner and took him away in chains to Babylon.

So he sent against them the king of the Chaldaeans, who put their young men to death with the sword in the house of their holy place, and had no pity for any, young man or virgin, old man or white-haired: God gave them all into his hands.

And he gave them into the hands of the nations; and they were ruled by their haters.

I will send him against a nation of wrongdoers, and against the people of my wrath I will give him orders, to take their wealth in war, crushing them down like the dust in the streets.

If the horn is sounded in the town will the people not be full of fear? will evil come on a town if the Lord has not done it?

For nation will be moved against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and men will be without food, and the earth will be shaking in different places;

Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles.

And when news of wars and troubled times comes to your ears, have no fear; for these things have to be, but the end will not be now.

For these are the days of punishment, in which all the things in the Writings will be put into effect.
