²³ with you I scatter shepherd and flock,
with you I scatter plowman and ox-team,
with you I scatter governors and officials.
²⁴ I will repay Babylon and all living in Chaldea
for all their evil that they did in Zion,
before your eyes.”
It is a declaration of Adonai.
²⁵ “Beware! I am against you,
destroyer of the Mount!”
—it is a declaration of Adonai—
“Destroyer of all the land—
I will stretch out My hand at you,
roll you down from the cliffs,
and make you a burning hill.
