Jeremiah 6:22-24
New King James Version
22 Thus says the Lord:
“Behold, a people comes from the (A)north country,
And a great nation will be raised from the farthest parts of the earth.
23 They will lay hold on bow and spear;
They are cruel and have no mercy;
Their voice (B)roars like the sea;
And they ride on horses,
As men of war set in array against you, O daughter of Zion.”
24 We have heard the report of it;
Our hands grow feeble.
(C)Anguish has taken hold of us,
Pain as of a woman in [a]labor.

New International Version
22 This is what the Lord says:
“Look, an army is coming
from the land of the north;(A)
a great nation is being stirred up
from the ends of the earth.(B)
23 They are armed with bow and spear;
they are cruel and show no mercy.(C)
They sound like the roaring sea(D)
as they ride on their horses;(E)
they come like men in battle formation
to attack you, Daughter Zion.(F)”
