21 The foreign soldiers you hired
    will turn and run.
But they are doomed,
like well-fed calves
    being led to the butcher.

* 22 The enemy army will go forward
    like a swarm of locusts.[a]
Your troops will feel helpless,
    like a snake in a forest
23 when men with axes
    start chopping down trees.
It can only hiss
    and try to escape.
