“Get your large and small shields ready.
    March out for battle.
Get the horses ready.
    Soldiers, get on your horses.
Go to your places for battle.
    Put your helmets on.
Sharpen your spears.
    Put your armor on.
What do I see?
    That army is afraid.
The soldiers are running away.
    Their brave soldiers are defeated.
They run away in a hurry.
    They don’t look back.
    There is danger all around.”
This is what the Lord said.

    and march out for battle!
Harness the horses,
    mount the steeds!
Take your positions
    with helmets on!
Polish(B) your spears,
    put on your armor!(C)
What do I see?

they are retreating,
    their warriors are defeated.
They flee(D) in haste
    without looking back,
    and there is terror(E) on every side,”
