7Who is this, rising like the Nile, like rivers whose waters surge?

8Egypt rises like the Nile, and its waters surge like rivers. It says, ‘I will rise, I will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and those who dwell in it.’

9Go up, O horses, and rage, O chariots; let the warriors go out—Cush and Put, who grasp the shield, and the Ludim, who grasp and bend the bow.

10That day belongs to the Lord GOD of Armies, a day of vengeance, to avenge himself on his foes. The sword will devour and be satisfied and drink its fill of their blood, for the Lord GOD of Armies has a sacrifice in the land of the north, by the Euphrates River.
