12     The nations of the world hear of your shame;
        the earth is filled with your cries.
    One mighty warrior stumbles over another,
        and both of them fall down together.

13 This is the word the prophet Jeremiah received from the Eternal about the coming of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, to attack the land of Egypt.

        proclaim it in Memphis and Tahpanhes as well:
    Take your positions, and get ready for battle,
        for the sword will devour everyone around you.
