Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.

The verse 15 is found in chapter 13 of Isaiah. The image of Babylon as an abandoned city carries judgment from the battlefield to complete ruin. The disappearance of its inhabitants and the presence of wild animals emphasize a radical reversal of its former greatness. The prophecy uses poetic language of devastation to communicate the end of imperial arrogance.

darum daß, wer sich da finden läßt, erstochen wird, und wer dabei ist, durchs Schwert fallen wird.
Cualquiera que fuere hallado, será alanceado; y cualquiera que a ellos se juntare, caerá a cuchillo.
Todo el que sea hallado será atravesado, y todo el que sea capturado caerá a espada.
Tous ceux qu'on trouvera seront percés, Et tous ceux qu'on saisira tomberont par l'épée.
Chiunque sarà trovato sarà trafitto, e chiunque si sarà aggiunto con loro caderà per la spada.
Todo o que for achado será transpassado; e todo o que se unir a ele cairá à espada.
凡被追上的必被刺死, 凡被捉拿的必倒在刀下。
