14I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, says Yahweh: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have compassion, that I should not destroy them.
15Hear you, and give ear; don`t be proud; for Yahweh has spoken.

19The cities of the South are shut up, and there is none to open them: Judah is carried away captive, all of it; it is wholly carried away captive.
20Lift up your eyes, and see those who come from the north: where is the flock that was given you, your beautiful flock?
