Isaiah 13:17-19
New American Standard Bible
Babylon Will Fall to the Medes
17 Behold, I am going to (A)stir up the Medes against them,
Who will not value silver or (B)take pleasure in gold.
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.
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.

Jeremiah 50:41-43
New American Standard Bible
41 “Behold, a people is coming (A)from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be roused 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)Drawn up like a man for the battle
Against you, 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.

a great nation and many kings
are being stirred(B) up from the ends of the earth.(C)
42 They are armed with bows(D) and spears;
they are cruel(E) and without mercy.(F)
They sound like the roaring sea(G)
as they ride on their horses;
they come like men in battle formation
to attack you, Daughter Babylon.(H)
43 The king of Babylon has heard reports about them,
and his hands hang limp.(I)
Anguish has gripped him,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(J)
