Jeremiah

Jeremiah 46:9–10

⁹Advance, O horses! Race furiously, O chariots!

Let the warriors come forth—

Cush^a and Put carrying their shields,

men of Lydia drawing the bow.

¹⁰For that day belongs to the Lord GOD of Hosts,

a day of vengeance against His foes.

The sword will devour until it is satisfied,

until it is quenched with their blood.

For the Lord GOD of Hosts will hold a sacrifice

in the land of the north by the River Euphrates.
