Isaiah 13:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 With their bows they shall shatter the young men,
And the fruit of the womb they shall not spare,
nor shall their eye take pity on children.
19 And Babylon, the jewel of kingdoms,
the glory and pride of the Chaldeans,
Shall become like Sodom and Gomorrah,
overthrown by God.(A)
20 It shall never be inhabited,
nor dwelt in, from age to age;
Arabians shall not pitch their tents there,
nor shepherds rest their flocks there.(B)
Isaiah 13:18-20
New International Version
18 Their bows(A) will strike down the young men;(B)
they will have no mercy(C) on infants,
nor will they look with compassion on children.(D)
19 Babylon,(E) the jewel of kingdoms,(F)
the pride and glory(G) of the Babylonians,[a]
will be overthrown(H) by God
like Sodom and Gomorrah.(I)
20 She will never be inhabited(J)
or lived in through all generations;
there no nomads(K) will pitch their tents,
there no shepherds will rest their flocks.
