Jeremiah 50:41-46
Amplified Bible
41
“Behold, a people is coming from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be stirring from the remote parts of the earth.
42
“They seize their bow and spear;
They are cruel and have no compassion.
They sound like the roaring of the sea;
They ride on horses,
Every man equipped like a man [ready] for the battle
Against you, O Daughter of Babylon.
43
“The king of Babylon has heard the report about them,
And his hands fall limp and helpless;
Anguish has seized him,
And agony like that of a woman in childbirth.
44 “See, one will come up like a lion from the thicket of the Jordan against the enduring habitation [of Babylon] and its watered pastures; for in an instant I will make Babylon run from his land. I will appoint over Babylon the one whom I choose. For who is like Me, and who will summon Me [into court] and prosecute Me [for this]? Who is the [earthly] shepherd who can stand [defiantly] before Me?”(A) 45 Therefore hear the plan of the Lord which He has devised against Babylon, and hear what He has purposed against [the inhabitants of the land of] the Chaldeans: surely they will be dragged away, [even] the little ones of the flock; surely He will make their habitation desolate because of them. 46 At the shout, “Babylon has been seized!” the earth quakes, and an outcry is heard among the nations.

Jeremiah 50:41-46
New American Standard Bible
41 “Behold, a people is coming (A)from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be roused from the remote parts of the earth.
42 They (B)seize their bow and javelin;
They are (C)cruel and have no mercy.
Their (D)voice roars like the sea;
And they ride on (E)horses,
(F)Drawn up like a man for the battle
Against you, daughter of Babylon.
43 The (G)king of Babylon has heard the report about them,
And his hands hang limp;
(H)Distress has gripped him,
Agony like a woman in childbirth.
44 “(I)Behold, one will come up like a lion from the thicket of the Jordan to a perennially watered pasture; for in an instant I will chase them away from it, and I will appoint over it whoever is (J)chosen. For who is (K)like Me, and who will summon Me into court? And who then is the shepherd who can (L)stand against Me?” 45 Therefore hear the (M)plan of the Lord which He has planned against Babylon, and His purposes which He has in mind against the land of the Chaldeans: (N)they will certainly drag them off, even the little ones of the flock; He will certainly make their pasture desolate because of them. 46 At the [a]shout, “Babylon has been conquered!” the (O)earth quakes, and an (P)outcry is heard among the nations.
