From before them[a] nations writhe,
    all faces turn pale.[b]
They run like mighty warriors,[c]
    they scale the wall like men of war;
each goes on its own way,
    and they do not swerve from their paths.
They do not jostle one another;[d]
    each goes on its own trail;
and through the falling weapons,[e]
    they are not halted.
