Jeremiah 6:22-24 The Lord has said, See, a people is coming from the north country, a great nation will be put in motion from the inmost parts of the earth.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² The Lord has said, See, a people is coming from the north country, a great nation will be put in motion from the inmost parts of the earth. ²³ Bows and spears are in their hands; they are cruel and have no mercy; their voice is like the thunder of the sea, and they go on horses; everyone in his place like men going to the fight, against you, O daughter of Zion. ²⁴ The news of it has come to our ears; our hands have become feeble: trouble has come on us and pain, like the pain of a woman in childbirth.
