²² “Therefore, O Oholibah, thus says the Lord ^[a]God, ‘Behold I will arouse your lovers against you, from whom ^[b]you were alienated, and I will bring them against you from every side: ²³ the ^[c](A)Babylonians and all the ^(B)Chaldeans, ^(C)Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the ^[d](D)Assyrians with them; desirable young men, governors and officials all of them, officers and ^[e]men of renown, all of them riding on horses. ²⁴ They will come against you with weapons, ^(E)chariots and ^[f]wagons, and with a company of peoples. They will set themselves against you on every side with buckler and shield and helmet; and I will commit the ^(F)judgment to them, and they will judge you according to their customs. ²⁵ I will set My ^(G)jealousy against you, that they may deal with you in wrath. They will remove your nose and your ears; and your ^[g]survivors will fall by the sword. They will take your ^(H)sons and your daughters; and your ^[h]survivors will be consumed by the fire.
