3A fire devours before them, And behind them, a flame burns. The land is as the garden of Eden before them, And behind them, a desolate wilderness. Yes, and no one has escaped them.
4The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses, And as horsemen, so do they run.
5Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap, Like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, As a strong people set in battle array.
6At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.
7They run like mighty men. They climb the wall like warriors. They each march in his line, and they don`t swerve off course.
8Neither does one jostle another; They march everyone in his path, And they burst through the defenses, And don`t break ranks.
9They rush on the city. They run on the wall. They climb up into the houses. They enter in at the windows like thieves.
