5 aWith a noise like chariots
Over mountaintops they leap,
Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble,
Like a strong people set in battle array.
Over mountaintops they leap,
Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble,
Like a strong people set in battle array.
7 They run like mighty men,
They climb the wall like men of war;
Every one marches in formation,
And they do not break aranks.
They climb the wall like men of war;
Every one marches in formation,
And they do not break aranks.
8 They do not push one another;
Every one marches in his own1 column.
Though they lunge between the weapons,
They are not1 cut down.
Every one marches in his own1 column.
Though they lunge between the weapons,
They are not1 cut down.
9 They run to and fro in the city,
They run on the wall;
They climb into the houses,
They aenter at the windows blike a thief.
They run on the wall;
They climb into the houses,
They aenter at the windows blike a thief.
10 aThe earth quakes before them,
The heavens tremble;
bThe sun and moon grow dark,
And the stars diminish their brightness.
The heavens tremble;
bThe sun and moon grow dark,
And the stars diminish their brightness.
11 aThe Lord gives voice before His army,
For His camp is very great;
bFor strong is the One who executes His word.
For the cday of the Lord is great and very terrible;
dWho can endure it?
For His camp is very great;
bFor strong is the One who executes His word.
For the cday of the Lord is great and very terrible;
dWho can endure it?
