Jeremiah 46:8-10

Christian Standard Bible

⁸ Egypt rises like the Nile,^(A)
and its waters churn like rivers.
He boasts, “I will go up, I will cover the earth;
I will destroy cities with their residents.”
⁹ Rise up, you cavalry!
Race furiously, you chariots!
Let the warriors march out—
Cush and Put,^(B)
who are able to handle shields,
and the men of Lud,^(C)
who are able to handle and string the bow.^(D)
10 That day belongs to the Lord, the God of Armies,
a day of vengeance to avenge himself
against his adversaries.
The sword will devour and be satisfied;
it will drink its fill of their blood,
because it will be a sacrifice^(E) to the Lord, the God of Armies,
in the northern land by the Euphrates River.^(F)
