1 Esdras 1:49-51

Common English Bible

⁴⁹ But they mocked the messengers and made fun of the prophets on the day that the Lord spoke.

Finally, God, with divine anger, brought the Chaldean kings against his chosen nation because of their godless acts. ⁵⁰ The Chaldeans killed the young people around the holy temple. They spared neither man nor woman, young nor old, for God handed over all of them. ⁵¹ They seized and carried off to Babylon all the Lord’s holy equipment, great and small, the treasure chests of the Lord, and the royal stores.
