Isaiah 23:13

Behold the land of the Chaldeans! This is the people that was not; Assyria destined it for wild beasts. They erected their siege towers, they stripped her palaces bare, they made her a ruin.

Look at the land of the Babylonians,

this people that is now of no account!

The Assyrians have made it

a place for desert creatures;

they raised up their siege towers,

they stripped its fortresses bare

and turned it into a ruin.

Look at the land of the Chaldeans—

a people who no longer exist.

Assyria destined it for desert creatures.

They set up their siege towers

and stripped its palaces.

They made it a ruin.

Look at the land of Babylonia—

the people of that land are gone!

The Assyrians have handed Babylon over

to the wild animals of the desert.

They have built siege ramps against its walls,

torn down its palaces,

and turned it to a heap of rubble.

Look at the land of the Chaldeans!

This people no longer exists.

Assyria destined it for wild animals.

They erected its siege towers;

they demolished its citadel fortresses.

It made her like a ruin.

Behold the land of the Chaldeans;

This people was not,

Till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness:

They set up the towers thereof,

They raised up the palaces thereof;

And he brought it to ruin.
