Jeremiah 46:22-24

International Children’s Bible

²² Egypt is like a hissing snake that is trying to escape.
    The enemy comes closer and closer.
They will come against Egypt with axes.
    They are like men who cut down trees.
²³ They will chop down Egypt’s army
    as if it were a great forest,” says the Lord.
“There are more enemy soldiers than locusts.
    There are too many soldiers to count.
²⁴ The people of Egypt will be ashamed.
    They will be handed over to the enemy from the north.”
