Isaiah 13:17-19
Common English Bible
17 Look! I’m rousing the Medes against them;
the Medes pay no mind to silver, no desire for gold.
18 Their bows will smash youths;
they will be merciless to newborns, pitiless to children.
19 So Babylon, a jewel among kingdoms,
the Chaldeans’ splendor and pride,
will be like Sodom and Gomorrah,
destroyed by God.
Isaiah 13:17-19
New International Version

who do not care for silver
and have no delight in gold.(C)
18 Their bows(D) will strike down the young men;(E)
they will have no mercy(F) on infants,
nor will they look with compassion on children.(G)
19 Babylon,(H) the jewel of kingdoms,(I)
the pride and glory(J) of the Babylonians,[a]
will be overthrown(K) by God
like Sodom and Gomorrah.(L)
