Jeremiah 46:20-22

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁰ Egypt is like a beautiful young cow.
But an army from the north will attack her, like a crowd of flies that bite.
²¹ Egypt has paid soldiers from other countries to help her.
But they are like fat calves that are too weak to fight.
They will not stand and fight, but they will turn and run away.
Yes, the day of Egypt's punishment has arrived!
Their enemy has come to destroy them.
²² Egypt's people will run away, like a snake along the ground.
The enemy's strong army will march forward.
They will attack Egypt with axes, like men who cut down trees.
