2Against EgyptH4714, against the armyH2428 of Pharaoh–nechoH6549 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, which was by the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578 in CarchemishH3751, which NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
3OrderH6186 ye the bucklerH4043 and shieldH6793, and draw nearH5066 to battleH4421.
4HarnessH631 the horsesH5483; and get upH5927, ye horsemenH6571, and stand forthH3320 with your helmetsH3553; furbishH4838 the spearsH7420, and put onH3847 the brigandinesH5630.
5Wherefore have I seenH7200 them dismayedH2844 and turnedH5472 away backH268? and their mighty onesH1368 are beaten downH3807, and are fledH5127 apaceH4498, and look not backH6437: for fearH4032 was round aboutH5439, saithH5002 YhwhH3068.12
6Let not the swiftH7031 flee awayH5127, nor the mighty manH1368 escapeH4422; they shall stumbleH3782, and fallH5307 toward the northH6828 byH3027 the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578.
7Who is this that cometh upH5927 as a floodH2975, whose watersH4325 are movedH1607 as the riversH5104?
8EgyptH4714 riseth upH5927 like a floodH2975, and his watersH4325 are movedH1607 like the riversH5104; and he saithH559, I will go upH5927, and will coverH3680 the earthH776; I will destroyH6 the cityH5892 and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof.
9Come upH5927, ye horsesH5483; and rageH1984, ye chariotsH7393; and let the mighty menH1368 come forthH3318; the EthiopiansH3568 and the LibyansH6316, that handleH8610 the shieldH4043; and the LydiansH3866, that handleH8610 and bendH1869 the bowH7198.34
