Jeremiah 46:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷ Who is this, rising like the Nile,
    like rivers whose waters surge?
⁸ Egypt is rising like the Nile,
    like rivers whose waters surge.
He says, ‘I’ll rise and cover the land.^[a]
    I’ll destroy the city and its inhabitants.’
⁹ Horses, get up!
Chariots, drive furiously!
Let the warriors go forward,
    Ethiopia and Put, who carry shields,
        and the Lydians who handle and bend the bow.
