- "The LORDª shall bringª° a nationª against¹ thee from far,ª¹ from the endª¹ of the earth,ª [as swift] as¹ the eagleª flieth;ª° a nationª whose¹ tongueª thou shalt not¹ understand;ª° ... And he shall besiegeª° thee in all¹ thy gates,ª until¹ thy highª and fencedª° wallsª come down,ª° wherein²¹ thou¹ trustedst,ª° throughout all¹ thy land:ª and he shall besiegeª° thee in all¹ thy gatesª throughout all¹ thy land,ª which¹ the LORDª thy Godª hath givenª° thee." {Deu 28:49-52} + "And the LORDª sentª° against him¹ bandsª of the Chaldees,ª and bandsª of the Syrians,ª and bandsª of the Moabites,ª and bandsª of the childrenª of Ammon,ª and sentª° them against Judahª to destroyª° it, according to the wordª of the LORD,ª which¹ he spakeª° byª his servantsª the prophets.ª" {2Kg 24:2} + "Against¹ him came upª° Nebuchadnezzarª kingª of Babylon,ª and boundª° him in fetters,ª to carry²°¹ him to Babylon.ª" {2Ch 36:6} + "Therefore he broughtª° upon¹ them¹ the kingª of the Chaldees,ª who slewª° their young menª with the swordª in the houseª of their sanctuary,ª and had no compassionª°¹ upon¹ young manª or maiden,ª old man,ª or him that stooped for age:ª he gaveª° [them] all¹ into his hand.ª" {2Ch 36:17} + "Behold¹ the landª of the Chaldeans;ª this¹ peopleª was¹ not,¹ [till] the Assyrianª foundedª° it for them that dwell in the wilderness:ª they set upª° the towersª thereof, they raised upª° the palacesª thereof; [and] he broughtª° it to ruin.ª" {Isa 23:13} + "Behold,¹ the daysª come,ª° that all¹ that¹ [is] in thine house,ª and [that] which¹ thy fathersª have laid up in storeª° until¹ this¹ day,ª shall be carriedª° to Babylon:ª nothingª¹ shall be left,ª° saithª° the LORD.ª ... And of thy sonsª¹ that¹ shall issueª° from¹ thee, which¹ thou shalt beget,ª° shall they take away;ª° and they shall be¹ eunuchsª in the palaceª of the kingª of Babylon.ª" {Isa 39:6-7} + "For,¹ lo,¹ I will callª° all¹ the familiesª of the kingdomsª of the north,ª saithª° the LORD;ª and they shall come,ª° and they shall setª° every oneª his throneª at the enteringª of the gatesª of Jerusalem,ª and against¹ all¹ the wallsª thereof round about,ª and against¹ all¹ the citiesª of Judah.ª ... And I will utterª° my judgmentsª against them touchingª all¹ their wickedness,ª who¹ have forsakenª° me, and have burned incenseª° unto otherª gods,ª and worshippedª° the worksª of their own hands.ª" {Jer 1:15-16} + "Set upª° the standardª toward Zion:ª retire,ª° stayª° not:¹ for¹ I¹ will bringª° evilª from the north,ª¹ and a greatª destruction.ª" {Jer 4:6} + "For¹ this¹ girdª° you with sackcloth,ª lamentª° and howl:ª° for¹ the fierceª angerª of the LORDª is not¹ turned backª° from¹ us." {Jer 4:8} + "Lo,¹ I will bringª° a nationª upon¹ you from far,ª¹ O houseª of Israel,ª saithª° the LORD:ª it¹ [is] a mightyª nation,ª it¹ [is] an ancientª¹ nation,ª a nationª whose languageª thou knowestª° not,¹ neither¹ understandestª° what¹ they say.ª°" {Jer 5:15} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Behold,¹ a peopleª comethª° from the northª country,ª¹ and a greatª nationª shall be raisedª° from the sidesª¹ of the earth.ª ... They shall lay holdª° on bowª and spear;ª they¹ [are] cruel,ª and have no¹ mercy;ª° their voiceª roarethª° like the sea;ª and they rideª° upon¹ horses,ª set in arrayª° as menª for warª against¹ thee, O daughterª of Zion.ª" {Jer 6:22-23} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª Godª of Israel;ª Behold,¹ I will turn backª°¹ the weaponsª of warª that¹ [are] in your hands,ª wherewith¹ ye¹ fightª° against¹ the kingª of Babylon,ª and [against] the Chaldeans,ª which besiegeª°¹ you withoutª¹ the walls,ª and I will assembleª° them into¹ the midstª of this¹ city.ª" {Jer 21:4} + "Behold,¹ I will sendª° and takeª°¹ all¹ the familiesª of the north,ª saithª° the LORD,ª and Nebuchadrezzarª the kingª of Babylon,ª my servant,ª and will bringª° them against¹ this¹ land,ª and against¹ the inhabitantsª° thereof, and against¹ all¹ these¹ nationsª round about,ª and will utterly destroyª° them, and makeª° them an astonishment,ª and an hissing,ª and perpetualª desolations.ª" {Jer 25:9}
