    and (B)you did not know it;

25 The Lord has opened his armory
    and brought out (C)the weapons of his wrath,
for the Lord God of hosts has a work to do
    in the land of the Chaldeans.

    open her granaries;
(D)pile her up like heaps of grain, and devote her to destruction;
    let nothing be left of her.
