² The noise of the whip, and the noise of thundering wheels; horses rushing and war-carriages jumping,

³ At the noise of the stamping of the feet of his war-horses, at the rushing of his carriages and the thunder of his wheels, fathers will give no thought to their children, because their hands are feeble;

²² Then loudly the feet of the horses were sounding with the stamping, the stamping of their war-horses.

²² Do you give strength to the horse? is it by your hand that his neck is clothed with power?

²³ Is it through you that he is shaking like a locust, in the pride of his loud-sounding breath?

²⁴ He is stamping with joy in the valley; he makes sport of fear.

²⁵ In his strength he goes out against the arms of war, turning not away from the sword.

³ For the Lord will make good the vine of Jacob, as well as the vine of Israel: for the wasters have made them waste and sent destruction on the branches of their vine.

⁴ The body-covers of his fighting men have been made red, the men of war are clothed in bright red: the war-carriages are like flames of fire in the day when he gets ready, the horses are shaking.

⁵ For every boot of the man of war with his sounding step, and the clothing rolled in blood, will be for burning, food for the fire.
