Jeremiah 46:2-9 NIV
2 Concerning Egypt:
This is the message against the army of Pharaoh Necho king of Egypt, which was defeated at Carchemish on the Euphrates River by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
3 “Prepare your shields, both large and small,
    and march out for battle!
4 Harness the horses,
    mount the steeds!
Take your positions
    with helmets on!
Polish your spears,
    put on your armor!
5 What do I see?
    They are terrified,
they are retreating,
    their warriors are defeated.
They flee in haste
    without looking back,
    and there is terror on every side,”
declares the Lord.
6 “The swift cannot flee
    nor the strong escape.
In the north by the River Euphrates
    they stumble and fall.
7 “Who is this that rises like the Nile,
    like rivers of surging waters?
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,
    like rivers of surging waters.
She says, ‘I will rise and cover the earth;
    I will destroy cities and their people.’
9 Charge, you horses!
    Drive furiously, you charioteers!
March on, you warriors—men of Cush and Put who carry shields,
    men of Lydia who draw the bow.
