This is what the LORD of Armies says:
I am about to shatter Elam’s bow,
the source[fn] of their might.
How the hammer of the whole earth
is cut down and smashed!
What a horror Babylon has become
among the nations!
Suddenly Babylon fell and was shattered.
Wail for her;
get balm for her wound —
perhaps she can be healed.
Babylon’s warriors have stopped fighting;
they sit in their strongholds.
Their might is exhausted;
they have become like women.
Babylon’s homes have been set ablaze,
her gate bars are shattered.
Now the Chaldeans broke into pieces the bronze pillars for the LORD’s temple and the water carts and the bronze basin[fn] that were in the LORD’s temple, and they carried all the bronze to Babylon.

all the mighty men within me.
He has summoned an army[fn] against me
to crush my young warriors.
The Lord has trampled Virgin Daughter Judah
like grapes in a winepress.

he has destroyed and shattered the bars on her gates.
Her king and her leaders live among the nations,
instruction[fn] is no more,
and even her prophets receive
no vision from the LORD.

“Your altars will be desolated and your shrines[fn] smashed. I will throw down your slain in front of your idols.
“Wherever you live the cities will be in ruins and the high places will be desolate, so that your altars will lie in ruins and be desecrated,[fn] your idols smashed and obliterated, your shrines cut down, and what you have made wiped out.
“Then your survivors will remember me among the nations where they are taken captive, how I was crushed by their promiscuous hearts that turned away from me and by their eyes that lusted after their idols. They will loathe themselves because of the evil things they did, their detestable actions of every kind.
“Son of man, suppose a land sins against me by acting faithlessly, and I stretch out my hand against it to cut off its supply of bread, to send famine through it, and to wipe out both people and animals from it.

onto the high seas,

in the heart of the sea.

in the depths of the waters;
your goods and the people within you
have gone down.

you splintered, tearing all their shoulders;
when they leaned on you,

“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Look, it has not been bandaged — no medicine has been applied and no splint put on to bandage it so that it can grow strong enough to handle a sword.
“Therefore, this is what the Lord GOD says: Look! I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt. I will break his arms, both the strong one and the one already broken, and will make the sword fall from his hand.
“I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king and place my sword in his hand. But I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before him as a mortally wounded man.
“Foreigners, ruthless men from the nations, cut it down and left it lying. Its limbs fell on the mountains and in every valley; its boughs lay broken in all the earth’s ravines. All the peoples of the earth left its shade and abandoned it.
“But you will be shattered
and will lie down among the uncircumcised,
with those slain by the sword.
“You have not strengthened the weak, healed the sick, bandaged the injured, brought back the strays, or sought the lost. Instead, you have ruled them with violence and cruelty.
“I will seek the lost, bring back the strays, bandage the injured, and strengthen the weak, but I will destroy[fn] the fat and the strong. I will shepherd them with justice.

I saw him approaching the ram and, infuriated with him, he struck the ram, breaking his two horns, and the ram was not strong enough to stand against him. The goat threw him to the ground and trampled him, and there was no one to rescue the ram from his power.
Then the male goat acted even more arrogantly, but when he became powerful, the large horn was broken. Four conspicuous horns came up in its place, pointing toward the four winds of heaven.
“The four horns that took the place of the broken horn represent four kingdoms. They will rise from that nation, but without its power.
“He will cause deceit to prosper
through his cunning and by his influence,
and in his own mind he will exalt himself.

“But as soon as he is established, his kingdom will be broken up and divided to the four winds of heaven, but not to his descendants; it will not be the same kingdom that he ruled, because his kingdom will be uprooted and will go to others besides them.
“In his place one will arise who will send out a tax collector for the glory of the kingdom; but within a few days he will be broken, though not in anger[fn] or in battle.

and weapons of war in the land[fn]
and will enable the people to rest securely.
