15I am about to bring a nation from far away against you, house of Israel. This is the Lord's declaration. It is an established nation, an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know and whose speech you do not understand. 16Their quiver is like an open grave; they are all warriors. 17They will consume your harvest and your food. They will consume your sons and your daughters. They will consume your flocks and your herds. They will consume your vines and your fig trees. With the sword they will destroy your fortified cities in which you trust.New Living Translation

'It is a mighty nation, an ancient nation, a people whose language you do not know, whose speech you cannot understand. 16Their weapons are deadly; their warriors are mighty. 17They will devour the food of your harvest; they will devour your sons and daughters. They will devour your flocks and herds; they will devour your grapes and figs. And they will destroy your fortified towns, which you think are so safe.English Standard Version
