26. And they shall not take of you a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but you shall be desolate forever,
27. Set you up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up like the bristling locusts.
28. Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, their captains, and all their rulers, and all the land of their dominion.
29. And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.
