“King Nebuchadnezzar
Will put to the sword
Your daughter towns
On the mainland.
He will set up
A siege wall
Against you.
He will cast up
A ramp
Against you.
He will raise a roof
Of shields
Against you.
He shall direct
The shock
Of his battering rams
Against your walls.
He will break down
Your towers
With his axes.”
