Jeremiah 46:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 The swift cannot flee away,
nor can the warrior escape;
in the north by the River Euphrates
they have stumbled and fallen.(A)
7 Who is this, rising like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge?(B)
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge.
It said, “Let me rise; let me cover the earth;
let me destroy cities and their inhabitants.”(C)
