Jeremiah 46:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 Also her hired men [a]are in the midst of her like fat calves: they are also turned back and fled away together: they could not stand, because the day of their destruction was come upon them, and the time of their visitation.
22 The voice thereof shall go forth like a [b]serpent: for they shall march with an army, and come against [c]her with axes, as hewers of wood.
23 They shall cut down [d]her forest, saith the Lord: for they cannot be counted, because they are more than the [e]grasshoppers, and are innumerable.
