Jeremiah 46:20-22
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 Egypt is a beautiful young cow,(A)
but a horsefly from the north is coming against her.[a](B)
21 Even her mercenaries among her
are like stall-fed calves.
They too will turn back;
together they will flee;
they will not take their stand,
for the day of their calamity is coming on them,
the time of their punishment.(C)
22 Egypt will hiss like a slithering snake,[b]
for the enemy will come with an army;
with axes they will come against her
like those who cut trees.(D)
