Jeremiah 6:22-24

Expanded Bible

²² This is what the Lord says:
“Look, an ·army [people] is coming
    from the land of the north [^CBabylon];
a great nation is ·coming [^Lstirred up]
    from the far sides of the earth.
²³ ·The soldiers carry [^LThey grasp/seize] bows and ·spears [javelins].
    They are ·cruel [fierce] and show no ·mercy [compassion].
They sound like the roaring ·ocean [sea; ^Csymbol of chaos]
    when they ride their horses.
That army is ·coming lined up [or equipped] for battle,
    ready to attack you, ·Jerusalem [^Ldaughter of Zion; ^Cthe location of the Temple].”
