KJV ORIGINAL
They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
They're coming with bows and spears, and they're absolutely ruthless — no mercy, no second chances. Their battle cry sounds like ocean waves crashing, and they're all on horseback, lined up in perfect formation, ready for war. And Babylon? You're their target.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When you mess with God's people, the consequences come back with zero mercy.
