Isaiah 13:15-18

^{Tools
15}

Anyone who is found will be ^(A)thrust through,
And anyone who is captured will fall by the sword.

^{Tools
16}

Their ^(B)little ones also will be dashed to pieces
Before their eyes;
Their houses will be plundered
And their wives ravished.

Babylon Will Fall to the Medes

^{Tools
17}

Behold, I am going to ^(C)stir up the Medes against them,
Who will not value silver or ^(D)take pleasure in gold.

^{Tools
18}

And their bows will ^(a)mow down the ^(E)young men,
They will not even have compassion on the fruit of the womb,
Nor will their ^(F)eye pity ^(b)children.
