Get the horses ready.
    Soldiers, get on your horses.
Go to your places for battle.
    Put your helmets on.
Sharpen your spears.
    Put your armor on.
What do I see?
    That army is afraid.
The soldiers are running away.
    Their brave soldiers are defeated.
They run away in a hurry.
    They don’t look back.
    There is danger all around.”
This is what the Lord said.

“Fast men cannot run away.
    Strong soldiers cannot escape.
They will all stumble and fall.
    This will happen in the north, by the Euphrates River.

    nor the strong escape.
In the north by the River Euphrates(F)
    they stumble and fall.(G)

Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.
