⁴ “Harness the horses,
And ^[a]mount the steeds,
And take your stand with helmets on!
^(A)Polish the spears,
Put on the ^(B)scale-armor!

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.

^9 (A)Proclaim this among the nations:
^(B)Prepare a war; ^(C)rouse the mighty men!
Let all the soldiers draw near, let them come up!
^10 (D)Beat your plowshares into swords
And your pruning hooks into spears;
^(E)Let the weak say, “I am a mighty man.”
