1. The Lord says, “I am bringing a destructive wind against Babylonia and its people.
2. I will send foreigners to destroy Babylonia like a wind that blows straw away. When that day of destruction comes, they will attack from every side and leave the land bare.
3. Don't give its soldiers time to shoot their arrows or to put on their armour. Do not spare the young men! Destroy the whole army!
4. They will be wounded and die in the streets of their cities.
