Daniel 7:19-21
“ Then I wanted to know the true meaning of the fourth beast, the one different from all the others, extremely terrifying, with iron teeth and bronze claws, devouring, crushing, and trampling with its feet whatever was left.I also wanted to know about the 10 horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three fell— the horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke arrogantly, and that was more visible than the others.As I was watching, this horn waged war against the holy ones and was prevailing over them
-
Revelation 17:16-17
The 10 horns you saw, and the beast, will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked, devour her flesh, and burn her up with fire.For God has put it into their hearts to carry out His plan by having one purpose and to give their kingdom to the beast until God’s words are accomplished.

Isaiah 21:1-10
An oracle against the desert by the sea: Like storms that pass over the Negev, it comes from the desert, from the land of terror.A troubling vision is declared to me:“ The treacherous one acts treacherously, and the destroyer destroys. Advance, Elam! Lay siege, you Medes! I will put an end to all her groaning.”Therefore I am filled with anguish. Pain grips me, like the pain of a woman in labor. I am too perplexed to hear, too dismayed to see.My heart staggers; horror terrifies me. He has turned my last glimmer of hope into sheer terror.Prepare a table, and spread out a carpet! Eat and drink! Rise up, you princes, and oil the shields!For the Lord has said to me,“ Go, post a lookout; let him report what he sees.When he sees riders— pairs of horsemen, riders on donkeys, riders on camels— he must pay close attention.”Then the lookout reported,“ Lord, I stand on the watchtower all day, and I stay at my post all night.Look, riders come— horsemen in pairs.” And he answered, saying,“ Babylon has fallen, has fallen. All the images of her gods have been shattered on the ground.”My people who have been crushed on the threshing floor, I have declared to you what I have heard from the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel.

Revelation 18:8-10
For this reason her plagues will come in one day— death and grief and famine. She will be burned up with fire, because the Lord God who judges her is mighty.The kings of the earth who have committed sexual immorality and lived luxuriously with her will weep and mourn over her when they see the smoke of her burning.They will stand far off in fear of her torment, saying: Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the mighty city! For in a single hour your judgment has come.

Isaiah 47:1-15
“ Go down and sit in the dust, Virgin Daughter Babylon. Sit on the ground without a throne, Daughter Chaldea! For you will no longer be called pampered and spoiled.Take millstones and grind meal; remove your veil, strip off your skirt, bare your thigh, wade through the streams.Your nakedness will be uncovered, and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.The Holy One of Israel is our Redeemer; Yahweh of Hosts is His name.“ Daughter Chaldea, sit in silence and go into darkness. For you will no longer be called mistress of kingdoms.I was angry with My people; I profaned My possession, and I placed them under your control. You showed them no mercy; you made your yoke very heavy on the elderly.You said,‘ I will be the mistress forever.’ You did not take these things to heart or think about their outcome.“ So now hear this, lover of luxury, who sits securely, who says to herself,‘ I exist, and there is no one else. I will never be a widow or know the loss of children.’These two things will happen to you suddenly, in one day: loss of children and widowhood. They will happen to you in their entirety, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.You were secure in your wickedness; you said,‘ No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and knowledge led you astray. You said to yourself,‘ I exist, and there is no one else.’But disaster will happen to you; you will not know how to avert it. And it will fall on you, but you will be unable to ward it off. Devastation will happen to you suddenly and unexpectedly.So take your stand with your spells and your many sorceries, which you have wearied yourself with from your youth. Perhaps you will be able to succeed; perhaps you will inspire terror!You are worn out with your many consultations. So let them stand and save you— the astrologers, who observe the stars, who predict monthly what will happen to you.Look, they are like stubble; fire burns them up. They cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. This is not a coal for warming themselves, or a fire to sit beside!This is what they are to you— those who have wearied you and have traded with you from your youth— each wanders on his own way; no one can save you.

Isaiah 46:10-11
I declare the end from the beginning, and from long ago what is not yet done, saying: My plan will take place, and I will do all My will.I call a bird of prey from the east, a man for My purpose from a far country. Yes, I have spoken; so I will also bring it about. I have planned it; I will also do it.

Isaiah 13:14-18
Like wandering gazelles and like sheep without a shepherd, each one will turn to his own people, each one will flee to his own land.Whoever is found will be stabbed, and whoever is caught will die by the sword.Their children will be smashed to death before their eyes; their houses will be looted, and their wives raped.Look! I am stirring up the Medes against them, who cannot be bought off with silver and who have no desire for gold.Their bows will cut young men to pieces. They will have no compassion on little ones; they will not look with pity on children.
