1. A scatterer has come up against you.Guard the ramparts, watch the road,protect your groin, save your strength!
2. The Lord will restore the pride of Jacob,indeed, the pride of Israel,because ravagers have destroyedthem and spoiled their branches.
3. The shields of his warriors are red;his soldiers are dressed in crimson.The ironwork of the chariots flashes like fireon the day he has prepared;the horses quiver.
4. The chariots race wildly through the streets;they rush back and forth through the squares.They look like flaming torches;they dart like bolts of lightning.
