Jeremiah 46:20-26
20EgyptH4714 is a prettyH3304 1heiferH5697, But a 2horseflyH7171 is comingH935 3from the northH6828--it is comingH935!21AlsoH1571 her 4mercenariesH7917 in her midstH7130 Are like fattenedH4770 5calvesH5695, For they tooH1571 have turnedH6437 awayH6437 and have fledH5127 togetherH3164; They did not standH5975 their ground. For the dayH3117 of their disasterH343 has comeH935 upon them, The timeH6256 of their 6punishmentH6486.22Its soundH6963 movesH1980 along like a serpentH5175; For they moveH1980 on 7like an armyH2428 And comeH935 to her as woodcuttersH2404 with axesH7134.23They have cutH3772 downH3772 her 8forestH3293,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068; “CertainlyH3588 it will noH3808 longer be foundH2713, Even thoughH3588 9they areH7231 moreH4480 numerousH7231 thanH4480 10locustsH697 And are withoutH369 numberH4557.24The daughterH1323 of EgyptH4714 has been putH954 toH954 shameH954, TurnedH5414 overH5414 to the 11powerH3027 of the 12peopleH5971 of the northH6828.”
25The LordH3068 of armiesH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, I am going to punishH6485 AmonH528 of 13ThebesH4996, and 14PharaohH6547, and EgyptH4714 along with her 15godsH430 and her kingsH4428, indeed, PharaohH6547 and those who 16trustH982 in him. 26I shall handH5414H3027 them overH5414 to those who are 17seekingH1245 their livesH5315, that is, to NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and to his 18officersH5650. 19AfterwardH310H3651, however, it will be inhabitedH7931 as in the daysH3117 of oldH6924,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.
