Jeremiah 46:8-10

New Century Version

⁸Egypt rises up like the Nile River,
    like strong, fast rivers.
Egypt says, ‘I will rise up and cover the earth.
    I will destroy cities and the people in them!’
⁹Horsemen, charge into battle!
    Chariot drivers, drive hard!
March on, brave soldiers—
    soldiers from the countries of Cush and Put who carry shields,
    soldiers from Lydia who use bows.

¹⁰“But that day belongs to the Lord God All-Powerful.
    At that time he will give those people the punishment they deserve.
The sword will kill until it is finished,
    until it satisfies its thirst for their blood.
The Lord God All-Powerful will offer a sacrifice
    in the land of the north, by the Euphrates River.
