Jeremiah 46:15-17

New Living Translation

¹⁵ Why have your warriors fallen?
    They cannot stand, for the Lord has knocked them down.
¹⁶ They stumble and fall over each other
    and say among themselves,
‘Come, let’s go back to our people,
    to the land of our birth.
    Let’s get away from the sword of the enemy!’
¹⁷ There they will say,
    ‘Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, is a loudmouth
    who missed his opportunity!’
