It is a day of darkness and gloom,
    a day of clouds and overcast skies.
        A large and mighty army
            will spread over the mountains like the dawn.[a]
    Nothing like this has ever happened.
    Nothing like this will ever happen again.

In front of this army a fire burns.
    Behind it flames are blazing.
    In front of it the land is like the garden of Eden.
    Behind it the land is like a barren desert.
        Nothing escapes it!

The soldiers look like horses.
    They run like war horses.
