Expanded Bible

The Curse of an Enemy Nation

⁴⁹ The Lord will bring a nation against you from far away, from the end of the world, and it will swoop down like an eagle. You won’t ·understand their language [^Lhear its tongue; Jer. 5:15–17], ⁵⁰ and they will ·look mean [be stern-faced]. They will not ·respect [show favoritism to] old people or ·feel sorry for [favor; have compassion for] the young. ⁵¹ They will eat the ·calves from your herds and the harvest of your field [^Lfruit of your livestock and the fruit of your land], and you will be destroyed. They will not leave you any grain, new wine or oil, or any calves from your herds or lambs from your flocks. You will ·be ruined [perish].
