Jeremiah 46:7-9
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
7 Who is this, rising like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge?
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge.
It said, Let me rise, let me cover the earth,
let me destroy cities and their inhabitants.
9 Advance, O horses,
and dash madly, O chariots!
Let the warriors go forth:
Ethiopia[a] and Put who carry the shield,
the Ludim, who draw[b] the bow.

New International Version
7 “Who is this that rises like the Nile,
like rivers of surging waters?(A)
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,(B)
like rivers of surging waters.
She says, ‘I will rise and cover the earth;
I will destroy cities and their people.’(C)
9 Charge, you horses!
Drive furiously, you charioteers!(D)
March on, you warriors—men of Cush[a](E) and Put who carry shields,
men of Lydia(F) who draw the bow.
