2 Esdras 15:29-31

Common English Bible

²⁹ The nations of the serpents of Arabia will go out with many chariots. From the day they begin their journey, their hissing will echo over the earth so that all who hear them fear and tremble. ³⁰ The Carmonians will go forth from the forest^[a] in furious rage. They will come with great force and engage them in battle, and they will destroy part of the Assyrians’ land with their teeth. ³¹ After this, the serpents will remember their origin and become strong. They will turn, united in great strength, to pursue them.
