Jeremiah 46:3-7 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

3. “Prepare your shields, large and small.March out for battle!

4. Harness the horses.Soldiers, get on your horses!Go to your places for battle.Put on your helmets!Polish your spears.Put on your armor!

5. What do I see?That army is terrified.The soldiers are running away.Their warriors are defeated.They run away quickly.They don’t look back.There is terror on every side!” says the Lord.

6. “The fast runners cannot run away.The strong soldiers cannot escape.They will stumble and fallin the north, by the Euphrates River.

7. Who is this, rising up like the Nile River?Who comes like that strong, fast river?
