23     Babylonians and all the Chaldeans,
        the people of Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians,
    All attractive young men, governors and commanders,
        sharply-dressed officers and high-ranking officials mounted atop great horses.
24     They will come after you with lethal weapons[a] in hand,
        shields in place, dressed in armor;
    And troops will storm you from every side
        in war chariots and wagons.
    I will hand you over to their judgment,
        and they will punish you according to their customs.
25     I will unleash My jealous fury against you.
        They will slice off your nose and ears and kill the rest of your people in battle.
    They will steal your children,
        and they will burn any who survive in a fire.
