“Prepare buckler and shield,
    and advance for battle!
Harness the horses;
    mount, O horsemen!
Take your stations with your helmets,
    polish your spears,
    put on your coats of mail!
Why have I seen it?
They are dismayed
    and have turned backward.
Their warriors are beaten down,
    and have fled in haste;
they look not back—
    terror on every side!
                says the Lord.

    and march out for battle!
Harness the horses,
    mount the steeds!
Take your positions
    with helmets on!
Polish(B) your spears,
    put on your armor!(C)
What do I see?
    They are terrified,
they are retreating,
    their warriors are defeated.
They flee(D) in haste
    without looking back,
    and there is terror(E) on every side,”
declares the Lord.
