3. The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the spears are shaken terribly.
4. The chariots rage in the streets, they justle one against another in the broad ways: the appearance of them is like torches, they run like the lightnings.
5. He remembereth his worthies: they stumble in their march; they make haste to the wall thereof, and the mantelet is prepared.
