Jeremiah 46:9-11
New American Standard Bible 1995
9 Go up, you horses, and [a](A)drive madly, you chariots,
That the mighty men may [b]march forward:
Ethiopia and [c](B)Put, that handle the shield,
And the [d](C)Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.
10 For (D)that day belongs to the Lord [e]God of hosts,
A day of (E)vengeance, so as to avenge Himself on His foes;
And the (F)sword will devour and be satiated
And [f]drink its fill of their blood;
For there will be a (G)slaughter for the Lord [g]God of hosts,
In the land of the north by the river Euphrates.
11 Go (H)up to Gilead and obtain balm,
(I)O virgin daughter of Egypt!
In vain have you multiplied [h]remedies;
There is (J)no healing for you.

Jeremiah 46:9-11
New International Version
9 Charge, 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.
10 But 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)
