Jeremiah 50:42-44
BRG Bible
42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
43 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.
44 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan unto the habitation of the strong: but I will make them suddenly run away from her: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?

Jeremiah 50:42-44
New International Version
42 They are armed with bows(A) and spears;
they are cruel(B) and without mercy.(C)
They sound like the roaring sea(D)
as they ride on their horses;
they come like men in battle formation
to attack you, Daughter Babylon.(E)
43 The king of Babylon has heard reports about them,
and his hands hang limp.(F)
Anguish has gripped him,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(G)
44 Like a lion coming up from Jordan’s thickets(H)
to a rich pastureland,
I will chase Babylon from its land in an instant.
Who is the chosen(I) one I will appoint for this?
Who is like me and who can challenge me?(J)
And what shepherd can stand against me?”
