2 To Egypt: Concerning the army of King Pharaoh Neco of Egypt, which was encamped by the Euphrates River at Carchemish and which King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon defeated in the fourth year of the reign of Josiah's son Jehoiakim, king of Judah. 3 |Prepare buckler and shield, and advance into the battle! 4 Harness the horses! Riders, mount up! Take your positions with your helmets! Polish lances, and put on armor! 5 Why am I seeing this? They're terrified, they have turned back. Their warriors are crushed, and they take flight. They don't look back. Terror is on every side,| declares the LORD. 6 |The swift cannot flee, nor can the strong escape. In the north, beside the Euphrates River, they stumble and fall. Jeremiah 46:2-6, Intl. Standard Version. Copyright © 1995-2014 by ISV Foundation.
