(A)Set up the [a]buckler and shield,
And advance to the battle!
Harness the horses,
And [b]mount the steeds,
Take your stand with helmets on!
(B)Polish the spears,
Put on the (C)coats of armor!
Why have I seen it?
They are terrified,
They are (D)retreating,
And their (E)warriors are defeated
And have taken refuge in flight,
Without facing back.
[c](F)Terror is on every side!”
Declares the Lord.
