Isaiah 13:18-20
New International Version
18 Their bows(A) will strike down the young men;(B)
they will have no mercy(C) on infants,
nor will they look with compassion on children.(D)
19 Babylon,(E) the jewel of kingdoms,(F)
the pride and glory(G) of the Babylonians,[a]
will be overthrown(H) by God
like Sodom and Gomorrah.(I)
20 She will never be inhabited(J)
or lived in through all generations;
there no nomads(K) will pitch their tents,
there no shepherds will rest their flocks.

Isaiah 13:18-20
King James Version
18 Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eyes shall not spare children.
19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
