40 As when God overthrew (A)Sodom
And Gomorrah with its neighbors,” declares the Lord,
“No one will live there,
Nor will [a]anyone of mankind reside in it.

41 “Behold, a people is coming (B)from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be roused from the remote parts of the earth.
42 They (C)seize their bow and javelin;
They are (D)cruel and have no mercy.
Their (E)voice roars like the sea;
And they ride on (F)horses,
(G)Drawn up like a man for the battle
Against you, daughter of Babylon.
