21 Therefore, this is what the Lord says:
I am going to place stumbling blocks before these people;
fathers and sons together will stumble over them;(A)
friends and neighbors will also perish.

A Cruel Nation from the North

22 This is what the Lord says:

Look,(B) an army is coming from a northern land;(C)
a great nation will be stirred up
from the remote regions of the earth.(D)
23 They grasp bow and javelin.

Their voice roars like the sea,(F)
and they ride on horses,
lined up like men in battle formation
against you, Daughter Zion.
