²⁴ Therefore I will bring the ^(A)worst of the Gentiles,
And they will possess their houses;
I will cause the pomp of the strong to cease,
And their holy places shall be ^(B)defiled.

³¹ I will ^(A)pour out My indignation on you;
I will ^(B)blow against you with the fire of My wrath,
And deliver you into the hands of brutal men who are skillful to ^(C)destroy.

¹¹ He and his people with him, ^(A)the most terrible of the nations,
Shall be brought to destroy the land;
They shall draw their swords against Egypt,
And fill the land with the slain.

⁶ For indeed I am ^(A)raising up the Chaldeans,
A bitter and hasty ^(B)nation
Which marches through the breadth of the earth,
To possess dwelling places that are not theirs.
⁷ They are terrible and dreadful;
Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.
⁸ Their horses also are ^(C)swifter than leopards,
And more fierce than evening wolves.
Their ^[a]chargers ^[b]charge ahead;
Their cavalry comes from afar;
They fly as the ^(D)eagle that hastens to eat.
