With you I will smash nations; with you I will bring kingdoms to ruin. 21With you I will smash the horse and its rider; with you I will smash the chariot and its rider. 22With you I will smash man and woman; with you I will smash the old man and the youth; with you I will smash the young man and the young woman. 23With you I will smash the shepherd and his flock; with you I will smash the farmer and his ox-team. With you I will smash governors and officials.New Living Translation
