10 For (A)that day belongs to the Lord [a]God of armies,
A day of (B)vengeance, so as to avenge Himself on His foes;
And the (C)sword will devour and be satisfied,
And [b]drink its fill of their blood;
For there will be a (D)slaughter for the Lord [c]God of armies,
In the land of the north at the river Euphrates.
11 Go (E)up to Gilead and obtain balm,
(F)Virgin daughter of Egypt!
You have used many [d]remedies in vain;
There is (G)no healing for you.
12 The nations have heard of your (H)shame,
And the earth is full of your (I)cry of distress;
For one (J)warrior has stumbled over [e]another,
And both of them have fallen down together.
