Jeremiah 46:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ What do I see?
    That army is terrified,
and the soldiers ·are running away [have turned back].
    Their warriors are defeated.
They ·run away [flee] quickly
    without looking back.
    There is terror on every side [6:5; 20:3, 10; 49:29]!” says the Lord.
⁶ “The fast runners cannot ·run away [flee];
    the strong soldiers cannot escape.
They stumble and fall
    in the north, by the Euphrates River.
⁷ Who is this, rising up like the Nile River,
    like ·strong, fast rivers [rivers whose waters surge]?
