⁹ The blow of his battering rams he will direct against your walls, and with his ^[a]axes he will break down your towers. ¹⁰ Because of the multitude of his ^(A)horses, the dust raised by them will cover you; your walls will ^(B)shake at the noise of cavalry and ^[b]wagons and chariots when he ^(C)enters your gates as men enter a city that is breached. ¹¹ With the hoofs of his ^(D)horses he will trample all your streets. He will slay your people with the sword; and your strong pillars will ^(E)come down to the ground.
