And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servants the prophets.

Verse 2 is found in chapter 24 of 2 Kings. Jehoiakim initially submits to Nebuchadnezzar and later rebels. As a result, Judah begins suffering raids from various peoples. The narrator interprets these calamities in light of the Lord’s word against Judah, especially because of the accumulated sins during Manasseh’s reign. Political history thus becomes the visible setting of a judgment already announced theologically. The chapter indicates that despite long divine patience, a point arrives when the accumulated consequences of sin produce an irreversible crisis.

Und der HERR ließ auf ihn Kriegsknechte kommen aus Chaldäa, aus Syrien, aus Moab und aus den Kindern Ammon und ließ sie nach Juda kommen, daß sie es verderbten, nach dem Wort des HERRN, das er geredet hatte durch seine Knechte, die Propheten.
Jehová empero envió contra él tropas de Caldeos, y tropas de Siros, y tropas de Moabitas, y tropas de Ammonitas; los cuales envió contra Judá para que la destruyesen, conforme a la palabra de Jehová que había hablado por sus siervos los profetas.
Jehová envió contra él bandas de caldeos, bandas de arameos, bandas de moabitas y bandas de los hijos de Amón. Las envió contra Judá para destruirlo, conforme a la palabra que Jehová había pronunciado por medio de sus siervos los profetas.
Alors l'Eternel envoya contre Jojakim des troupes de Chaldéens, des troupes de Syriens, des troupes de Moabites et des troupes d'Ammonites; il les envoya contre Juda pour le détruire, selon la parole que l'Eternel avait prononcée par ses serviteurs les prophètes.
E il Signore mandò contro a lui delle schiere di Caldei, e delle schiere di Siri, e delle schiere di Moabiti, e delle schiere di Ammoniti, che fecero delle correrie. Ed egli le mandò contro a Giuda, per guastarlo, secondo la parola del Signore, ch’egli avea pronunziata per li profeti, suoi servitori.
E o SENHOR enviou contra ele as tropas dos caldeus, as tropas dos sírios, as tropas dos moabitas e as tropas dos filhos de Amom; e as enviou contra Judá, para o destruir, conforme a palavra do SENHOR, que falara pelo ministério de seus servos, os profetas.
耶和華派 迦勒底 、 亞蘭 、 摩押 和 亞捫 人的軍隊來攻擊 約雅敬 ;耶和華派他們來攻擊 猶大 ,要毀滅它,正如耶和華藉他僕人眾先知所說的話。
