Jeremiah 51:20-23
Legacy Standard Bible
20 He says, “You are My (A)instrument of shattering, My weapon of war;
And with you I (B)shatter nations,
And with you I destroy kingdoms.
21 With you I (C)shatter the horse and his rider,
And with you I shatter the (D)chariot and its rider,
22 And with you I shatter (E)man and woman,
And with you I shatter old man and (F)youth,
And with you I shatter choice man and virgin,
23 And with you I shatter the shepherd and his flock,
And with you I shatter the farmer and his pair of oxen,
And with you I shatter governors and prefects.
