Jeremiah 46:20-22

International Standard Version

²⁰ Egypt is a beautiful calf,^[a]
    but a horsefly from the north is surely coming.
²¹ Even the mercenary troops in her ranks
    are like a fattened calf.
They too will turn around,
    and will flee together.
They won’t stand,
    for the day of their disaster is coming on them,
        the time of their punishment.
²² Her cry will be like that of a fleeing serpent
    when they come in strength.
        They’re coming to her with axes like woodcutters.
