28 Their arrows are sharp,
    and all of their bows are ready to shoot.
The horses’ hoofs are hard as rocks,
    and their chariot wheels move like a whirlwind.
29 Their shout is like the roar of a lion;
    it is loud like a young lion.
They growl as they grab their captives.
    There is no one to stop them from taking their captives away.
30 On that day they will roar
    like the waves of the sea.
And when people look at the land,
    they will see only darkness and pain;
    all light will become dark in this thick cloud.
