It describes both what God will do and what the Medes will do. which is why the passage sometimes says "I will" and sometimes says "They".Your quote illustrates very nicely that the destruction would be "From" God. What you did not show is that the killing of the babies would be from God. that was from the Medes.Your quote also very nicely shows that you think it is not a prediction and think the event already happened but it says right there in the part you bolded "it shall come" which is in the future tense.The last time I checked verses 4 and 5 would come before verses 15 and 16.The LORD Almighty is mustering an army for war. 5 They come from faraway lands,The "they" refers to the Medes who are first named in verse 17.If you are going to discuss this, then give quotes or scriptural references please. And just because the internet doesn't know that the Medes had goats doesn't mean that they didn't. Don't let that get your goat though.

The last time I checked verses 4 and 5 would come before verses 15 and 16.
The LORD Almighty is mustering
an army for war.
5 They come from faraway lands,
The "they" refers to the Medes who are first named in verse 17.

I never said that the Medes did not have goats. But I also did not say that they did. You said that they had goats. So where did you learn that? How is it that you know more than any single source on the internet?
