Habakkuk 1:5-10
“ Look among the nations, and see; wonder and be astounded. For I am doing a work in your days that you would not believe if told.For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, who march through the breadth of the earth, to seize dwellings not their own.They are dreaded and fearsome; their justice and dignity go forth from themselves.Their horses are swifter than leopards, more fierce than the evening wolves; their horsemen press proudly on. Their horsemen come from afar; they fly like an eagle swift to devour.They all come for violence, all their faces forward. They gather captives like sand.At kings they scoff, and at rulers they laugh. They laugh at every fortress, for they pile up earth and take it.

and carried off all the treasures of the house of the Lord and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold in the temple of the Lord, which Solomon king of Israel had made, as the Lord had foretold.He carried away all Jerusalem and all the officials and all the mighty men of valor, 10,000 captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. None remained, except the poorest people of the land.And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon. The king’s mother, the king’s wives, his officials, and the chief men of the land he took into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.And the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon all the men of valor, 7,000, and the craftsmen and the metal workers, 1,000, all of them strong and fit for war.And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s uncle, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.For because of the anger of the Lord it came to the point in Jerusalem and Judah that he cast them out from his presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

Ezekiel 19:5-9
When she saw that she waited in vain, that her hope was lost, she took another of her cubs and made him a young lion.He prowled among the lions; he became a young lion, and he learned to catch prey; he devoured men,and seized their widows. He laid waste their cities, and the land was appalled and all who were in it at the sound of his roaring.Then the nations set against him from provinces on every side; they spread their net over him; he was taken in their pit.With hooks they put him in a cage and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into custody, that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel.
