to cease, and will humble the haughtiness of the terrible. 013:012 I will make people more rare than fine gold, even a person than the pure gold of Ophir. 013:013 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place in the wrath of Yahweh of Armies, and in the day of his fierce anger. 013:014 It will happen that like a a hunted gazelle, and like sheep that no one gathers, they will each turn to their own people, and will each flee to their own land. 013:015 Everyone who is found will be thrust through. Everyone who is captured will fall by the sword. 013:016 Their infants also will be dashed in pieces before their eyes. Their houses will be ransacked, and their wives raped. 013:017 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who will not value silver, and as for gold, they will not delight in it. 013:018 Their bows will dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb. Their eyes will not spare children. 013:019 Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, will be like when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. 013:020 It will never be inhabited, neither will it be lived in from generation to generation. The Arabian will not pitch a tent there, neither will shepherds make their flocks lie down there. 013:021 But wild animals of the desert will lie there, and their houses will be full of jackals. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will frolic there. 013:022 Wolves will cry in their castles, and jackals in the pleasant palaces. Her time is near to come, and her days will not be prolonged. 014:001 For Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob. 014:002 The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in Yahweh's land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors. 014:003 It will happen in the day that Yahweh will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve, 014:004 that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, "How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!" 014:005 Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers, 014:006 who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that none restrained. 014:007 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out song. 014:008 Yes, the fir trees rejoice with you, with the cedars
