Isaiah 21:2
New King James Version
2 A distressing vision is declared to me;
(A)The treacherous dealer deals treacherously,
And the plunderer plunders.
(B)Go up, O Elam!
Besiege, O Media!
All its sighing I have made to cease.
Jeremiah 51:11
New King James Version
11 (A)Make[a] the arrows bright!
Gather the shields!
(B)The Lord has raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes.
(C)For His plan is against Babylon to destroy it,
Because it is (D)the vengeance of the Lord,
The vengeance for His temple.
