Geremia 51:20-23

Listen to Geremia 51:20-23
20 Tu mi sei stato un martello, e strumenti di guerra; e con te ho fiaccate le nazioni, e con te ho distrutti i regni;
21 e con te ho fiaccati i cavalli, e quelli che li cavalcavano; e con te ho fiaccati i carri, e quelli ch’eran montati sopra.
22 E con te ho fiaccati gli uomini, e le donne; e con te ho fiaccati i vecchi, e i fanciulli; e con te ho fiaccati i giovani, e le vergini.
23 E con te ho fiaccati i pastori, e le lor mandre; e con te ho fiaccati i lavoratori, e i lor buoi accoppiati; e con te ho fiaccati i duci, ed i satrapi.
