41. Behold, a people cometh from the north; and a great nation, and many kings shall be stirred up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
42. They lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roareth like the sea, and they ride upon horses; every one set in array, as man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
