Jeremiah 46:3-12

3Make ready buckler and shieldH4043, and drawH5066 near to battleH4421!

4HarnessH631 the horsesH5483, and mount ye horsemenH6571, and standH3320 forth with helmetsH3553; polish the spearsH7420, putH3847 on the coats of mail!

5WhyH4069 do I seeH7200 them dismayed, turnedH6437 away backH268? And their mightyH1368 onesH1368 are beaten down, and take to flight, and lookH7200 not backH268? TerrorH4032 [is] on every side, saith Jehovah.

6Let not the swiftH7031 fleeH5127 away, neither let the mightyH1368 manH1368 escapeH4422! — Toward the northH6828, hard by the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578, they have stumbledH3782 and fallenH5307.

7Who is this [that] riseth up as the Nile, whose watersH4325 toss themselves like the riversH5104?

8It is EgyptH4714 that riseth up as the Nile, and [his] watersH4325 toss themselves like the riversH5104; and he saith, I will rise up, I will coverH3680 the earthH776; I will destroyH6 the cityH5892 and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof.

9GoH3318 up, ye horsesH5483, and drive furiously, ye chariotsH7393; and let the mightyH1368 menH1368 goH3318 forthH3318: CushH3568 and Phut that handle the shieldH4043, and the Ludim that handle the bowH7198 [and] bendH1869 it.

10For this is the dayH3117 of the LordH136 Jehovah of hostsH6635, a dayH3117 of vengeanceH5360, that he may be avengedH5358 of his adversaries; and the swordH2719 shall devourH398, and it shall be sated and made drunk with their bloodH1818; for the LordH136 Jehovah of hostsH6635 hath a sacrificeH2077 in the northH6828 country, by the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578.

11GoH5927 up to GileadH1568, and fetch balmH6875, O virgin-daughter of EgyptH4714! In vain shalt thou multiplyH7235 remedies: there is no healing for thee.

12The nationsH1471 have heardH8085 of thy shameH7036, and thy cry hath filledH4390 the earthH776; for the mightyH1368 manH1368 stumbleth against the mightyH1368, they are both fallenH5307 togetherH3162.
