Jeremiah:46:3-10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Order ye the buckler and shield ,
and draw near to battle .
*
Harness the horses ;
and get up ,
ye horsemen ,
and stand forth with your helmets ;
furbish the spears ,
and put on the brigandines .
*
Wherefore have I seen them dismayed and turned away back ?
and their mighty ones are beaten down ,
and are fled apace ,
and look not back :
for fear was round about ,
saith the LORD .
*
Let not the swift flee away ,
nor the mighty man escape ;
they shall stumble ,
and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates .
*
Who is this that cometh up as a flood y @#
or #,
whose waters are moved as the rivers ?
*
Egypt riseth up like a flood y @#
or #,
and his waters are moved like the rivers ;
and he saith ,
I will go up ,
and will cover the earth ;
I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof .
*
Come up ,
ye horses ;
and rage ,
ye chariots ;
and let the mighty men come forth ;
the Ethiopians and the Libyans ,
that handle the shield ;
and the Lydians ,
that handle and bend the bow .
*
For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts ,
a day of vengeance ,
that he may avenge him of his adversaries :
and the sword shall devour ,
and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood :
for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates .
