Isaiah 13:17-19

Babylon Will Fall to the Medes

^{Tools
17}

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

^{Tools
18}

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

^{Tools
19}

And ^(E)Babylon, the ^(F)beauty of kingdoms, the glory of the Chaldeans’ pride,
Will be as when God ^(G)overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
