Harness your horses and mount them!
Fall in line and put on your helmets!
    Sharpen your spears!
    Put on your armor!’

“But what do I see?” asks the Lord.
“They are turning back in terror.
Their soldiers are beaten back;
    overcome with fear, they run as fast as they can

    the soldiers cannot escape.
In the north, by the Euphrates,
    they stumble and fall.
