Jeremiah 46:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 [a]Wherefore have I seen them afraid, and driven back? for their mighty men are smitten, and are fled away, and look not back: for fear was round about, saith the Lord.
6 The swift shall not flee away, nor the strong man escape: they shall stumble, and [b]fall toward the North by the river Perath.
7 Who is this that cometh up as [c]a flood, whose waters are moved like the rivers?
