²⁵ Don’t go out to the fields;
don’t walk on the road.
For the enemy has a sword;
terror is on every side.^(A)

⁵ Why have I seen this?
They are terrified,
they are retreating,
their warriors are crushed,
they flee headlong,
they never look back,
terror is on every side!^(A)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
