All of them come for violence.
[a]Their horde of (A)faces moves forward.
They gather captives like sand.
10 They (B)make fun of kings,
And dignitaries are an object of laughter to them.
They (C)laugh at every fortress,
Then (D)heap up dirt and [b]capture it.
11 Then they fly along like the (E)wind and pass on.
But they will be held (F)guilty,
They whose (G)strength is their god.”
