6. “The infantry can’t flee.The warriors can’t escape.They stumble and fall in the north by the Euphrates River.
7. Who is this, rising like the Nile River,like streams that flow swiftly?
8. Egypt is like the rising Nile River,like a river quickly overflowing its banks.Egypt says, ‘I will rise; I will cover the earth.I will destroy cities and the people in them.’
9. Go into battle, you horsemen.Drive wildly, you chariot drivers.March into battle, you warriors,you warriors from Sudan and Put who carry shields,you warriors from Lydia who use bows and arrows.
