41
“Behold, a people is coming (A)from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be aroused from the remote parts of the earth.
42
“They (B)seize their bow and javelin;
They are (C)cruel and have no mercy.
Their (D)voice roars like the sea;
And they ride on (E)horses,
(F)Marshalled like a man for the battle
Against you, O daughter of Babylon.
43
“The (G)king of Babylon has heard the report about them,
And his hands hang limp;
(H)Distress has gripped him,
Agony like a woman in childbirth.
