Deuteronomy 28:51-52

51 It shall ^aeat the offspring of your cattle and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed; it also shall not leave you grain, wine, or oil, the increase of your herds or the young of your flock, until they have caused you to perish.

52 “They shall ^bbesiege you in all your towns, until your high and fortified walls, in which you trusted, come down throughout all your land. And they shall besiege you in all your towns throughout all your land, which the Lord your God has given you.

Jeremiah 4:7

7 ^cA lion has gone up from his thicket,
a destroyer of nations has set out;
he has gone out from his place
to make your land a waste;
your cities will be ruins
^dwithout inhabitant.

Jeremiah 5:15-17

15 ^eBehold, I am bringing against you
a nation from afar, O house of Israel,

declares the Lord.
It is an enduring nation;
it is an ancient nation,
a nation whose language you do not know,
^fnor can you understand what they say.
16 ^gTheir quiver is like ^han open tomb;
they are all mighty warriors.
17 ⁱThey shall eat up your harvest and your food;
they shall eat up your sons and your daughters;
they shall eat up your flocks and your herds;
they shall eat up your vines and your fig trees;
your ^jfortified cities in which you trust
they shall beat down with the sword.”

Jeremiah 25:9

9 ^kbehold, I will send for all the tribes of the north, declares the Lord, and for Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, ^lmy servant, and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants, and against all these surrounding nations. I will devote them to destruction, ^mand make them a horror, a hissing, and an everlasting desolation.

Habakkuk 1:6

6 For behold, ⁿI am raising up the Chaldeans,
that bitter and hasty nation,
^owho march through the breadth of the earth,
^pto seize dwellings not their own.

Habakkuk 2:5-13

5 “Moreover, wine ^{▼▼Masoretic Text; Dead Sea Scroll wealth} is ^ra traitor,
an arrogant man who is never at rest. ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew of these two lines is uncertain}
His greed is as wide as Sheol;
like death ^the has never enough.
^uHe gathers for himself all nations
and collects as his own all peoples.”

Woe to the Chaldeans

6 Shall not all these ^vtake up their taunt against him, with scoffing and riddles for him, and say,

^w“Woe to him ^xwho heaps up what is not his own—
for ^yhow long?—
and ^zloads himself with pledges!”
7 ^aaWill not your debtors suddenly arise,
and those awake who will make you tremble?
Then you will be spoil for them.
8 ^abBecause you have plundered many nations,
all the remnant of the peoples shall plunder you,
^acfor the blood of man and ^adviolence to the earth,
to cities and all who dwell in them.
9 ^ae“Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,
^afto ^agset his nest on high,
to be safe from the reach of harm!
10 You have devised shame for your house
^ahby cutting off many peoples;
you have forfeited your life.
11 For ^aithe stone will cry out from the wall,
and the beam from the woodwork respond.
12 ^aj“Woe to him ^akwho builds a town with blood
and founds a city on iniquity!
13 Behold, is it not from the Lord of hosts
that ^alpeoples labor merely for fire,
and nations weary themselves for nothing?
