I will destroy the cities of your land and tear down all your strongholds.

I will destroy the cities in your land. I will tear down all your forts.

and I will cut off the cities of your land and throw down all your strongholds;

I will tear down your walls and demolish your defenses.

I will remove the cities of your land and tear down all your fortresses.

I will also eliminate the cities of your land, And tear down all your fortifications.

I will cut off the cities of your land And throw down all your strongholds.

and I will cut off the cities of thy land, and will throw down all thy strongholds.

I will remove the cities of your land and tear down all your fortresses.

And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:

I will cut off the cities of your land, and will tear down all your strongholds.

Indeed, the LORD who commands armies has planned a day of judgment, for all the high and mighty, for all who are proud– they will be humiliated;for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are so high and mighty, for all the oaks of Bashan;for all the tall mountains, for all the high hills,for every high tower, for every fortified wall,for all the large ships, for all the impressive ships.Proud men will be humiliated, arrogant men will be brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.

You will say,“ I will invade a land of unwalled towns; I will advance against those living quietly in security– all of them living without walls and barred gates–

I replied,“ How long, sovereign master?” He said,“ Until cities are in ruins and unpopulated, and houses are uninhabited, and the land is ruined and devastated,

Therefore he told me,“ These signify the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel:‘ Not by strength and not by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD who rules over all.”

The roar of battle will rise against your people; all your fortresses will be devastated, just as Shalman devastated Beth Arbel on the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to the ground with their children.

He flashes destruction down upon the strong so that destruction overwhelms the fortified places.)
