Jeremiah 46:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 Who is this, rising like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge?(A)
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge.
It said, “Let me rise; let me cover the earth;
let me destroy cities and their inhabitants.”(B)
9 Advance, O horses,
and dash madly, O chariots!
Let the warriors go forth:
Cush and Put, who carry the shield,
the Ludim, who draw[a] the bow.(C)
