Jeremiah 46:8-10

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁸ Egypt rises like the Nile,
and its waters churn like rivers.
He boasts, “I will go up, I will cover the earth;
I will destroy cities with their residents.”
⁹ Rise up, you cavalry!
Race furiously, you chariots!
Let the warriors go out—
Cush and Put,^(A)
who are able to handle shields,
and the Ludim,^(B)
who are able to handle and string the bow.^(C)
10 That day belongs to the Lord, the God of Hosts,
a day of vengeance to avenge Himself
against His adversaries.
The sword will devour and be satisfied;
it will drink its fill of their blood,
because it will be a sacrifice^(D) to the Lord, the God of Hosts,
in the northern land by the Euphrates River.
