Isaiah 13:17-19
New American Standard Bible 1995
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.
