Jeremiah 46:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹Get ye up on horses, and glory in chariots, and let the valiant men come forth, the Ethiopians, and the Libyans that hold the shield, and the Lydians that take, and shoot arrows.

¹⁰For this is the day of the Lord the God of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may revenge himself of his enemies: the sword shall devour, and shall be filled, and shall be drunk with their blood: for there is a sacrifice of the Lord God of hosts in the north country, by the river Euphrates.

¹¹Go up into Galaad, and take balm, O virgin daughter of Egypt: in vain dost thou multiply medicines, there shall be no cure for thee.

Jeremiah 46:9-11

New International Version

⁹Charge, you horses!
    Drive furiously, you charioteers!^(A)
March on, you warriors—men of Cush^[a]^(B) and Put who carry shields,
    men of Lydia^(C) who draw the bow.
¹⁰But that day^(D) belongs to the Lord, the Lord Almighty—
    a day of vengeance^(E), for vengeance on his foes.
The sword will devour^(F) till it is satisfied,
    till it has quenched its thirst with blood.^(G)
For the Lord, the Lord Almighty, will offer sacrifice^(H)
    in the land of the north by the River Euphrates.^(I)
