the earth; I will destroy cities and the inhabitants of it. 046:009 Go up, you horses; and rage, you chariots; and let the mighty men go forth: Cush and Put, who handle the shield; and the Ludim, who handle and bend the bow. 046:010 For that day is [a day] of the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour and be satiate, and shall drink its fill of their blood; for the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates. 046:011 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, virgin daughter of Egypt: in vain do you use many medicines; there is no healing for you. 046:012 The nations have heard of your shame, and the earth is full of your cry; for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty, they are fallen both of them together. 046:013 The word that Yahweh spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon should come and strike the land of Egypt. 046:014 Declare you in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Memphis and in Tahpanhes: say you, Stand forth, and prepare you; for the sword has devoured round about you. 046:015 Why are your strong ones swept away? they didn't stand, because Yahweh did drive them. 046:016 He made many to stumble, yes, they fell one on another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our birth, from the oppressing sword. 046:017 They cried there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he has let the appointed time pass by. 046:018 As I live, says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies, surely like Tabor among the mountains, and like Carmel by the sea, so shall he come. 046:019 You daughter who dwell in Egypt, furnish yourself to go into captivity; for Memphis shall become a desolation, and shall be burnt up, without inhabitant. 046:020 Egypt is a very beautiful heifer; [but] destruction out of the north is come, it is come. 046:021 Also her hired men in the midst of her are like calves of the stall; for they also are turned back, they are fled away together, they didn't stand: for the day of their calamity is come on them, the time of their visitation. 046:022 The sound of it shall go like the serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as wood cutters. 046:023 They shall cut down her forest, says Yahweh, though it can't be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable. 046:024 The daughter of Egypt shall be disappointed; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north. 046:025 Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods,
