20
“You are my war club,
my weapon for battle—
with you I shatter nations,
with you I destroy kingdoms,
21
with you I shatter horse and rider,
with you I shatter chariot and driver,
22
with you I shatter man and woman,
with you I shatter old man and youth,
with you I shatter young man and maiden,
23
with you I shatter shepherd and flock,
with you I shatter farmer and oxen,
with you I shatter governors and officials.
24 “Before your eyes I will repay Babylon and all who live in Babylonia for all the wrong they have done in Zion,” declares the Lord.
25
“I am against you, O destroying mountain,
you who destroy the whole earth,”
declares the Lord.
“I will stretch out my hand against you,
roll you off the cliffs,
and make you a burned-out mountain.
26
No rock will be taken from you for a cornerstone,
nor any stone for a foundation,
for you will be desolate forever,”
declares the Lord.
