15Those who are captured will have spears stuck through them.
Those who are caught will be killed with swords.
16Their babies will be smashed to pieces
right in front of their eyes.
Their houses will be robbed.
Their wives will be raped.
17The Lord will stir up the Medes to attack the Babylonians.
They aren’t interested in getting silver.
They don’t delight in gold.
18Instead, they will use their bows and arrows
to strike the young men down.
They won’t even show any mercy to babies.
They won’t take pity on children.

Their infants will be dashed in pieces
before their eyes;
their houses will be plundered
and their wives ravished.
Behold, I am stirring up the Medes against them,
who have no regard for silver
and do not delight in gold.
Their bows will slaughter the young men;
they will have no mercy on the fruit of the womb;
their eyes will not pity children.

Anyone who is captured will be cut down—
run through with a sword.
Their little children will be dashed to death before their eyes.
Their homes will be sacked, and their wives will be raped.

And their children will be dashed into pieces before their eyes;

Every one that is found shall be thrust through;
And every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes;
Their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them,
Which shall not regard silver;
And as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces;
And they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb;
Their eye shall not spare children.
