LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ² FOR EGYPT, AGAINST THE POWER OF PHARAO NECHAO KING OF EGYPT, who was by the river Euphrates in Charmis, whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon struck in the fourth year of Joakim king of Juda. ³ Take up arms and spears, and draw near to battle; ⁴ and harness the horses: mount, you⌃ horsemen, and stand ready in your helmets; advance the spears, and put on your breastplates. ⁵ Why do they fear, and turn back? even because their mighty men shall be slain: they have utterly fled, and being hemmed in they have not rallied, says the Lord. ⁶ Let not the swift flee, and let not the mighty man escape to the north: the [forces] at Euphrates are become feeble, and they have fallen. ⁷ Who is this [that] shall come up as a river, and as rivers roll [their] waves? ⁸ The waters of Egypt shall come up like a river: and he said, I will go up, and will cover the earth, and will destroy the dwellers in it.
