Jeremiah 5:15
5:15 The Lord says, “Listen, nation of Israel!
I am about to bring a nation from far away to attack you.
It will be a nation that was founded long ago
and has lasted for a long time.
It will be a nation whose language you will not know.
Its people will speak words that you will not be able to understand.
Deuteronomy 28:49-52
28:49 The
Lord will raise up a distant nation against you, one from the other side of the earth
as the eagle flies,
a nation whose language you will not understand,
28:50 a nation of stern appearance that will have no regard for the elderly or pity for the young.
28:51 They
will devour the offspring of your livestock and the produce of your soil until you are destroyed. They will not leave you with any grain, new wine, olive oil, calves of your herds,
or lambs of your flocks
until they have destroyed you.
28:52 They will besiege all of your villages
until all of your high and fortified walls collapse – those in which you put your confidence throughout the land. They will besiege all your villages throughout the land the
Lord your God has given you.
Isaiah 39:3
39:3 Isaiah the prophet visited King Hezekiah and asked him, “What did these men say? Where do they come from?” Hezekiah replied, “They come from the distant land of Babylon.”
