Jeremiah 46:8 in Context — Jeremiah 46
6 Não fuja o ligeiro, nem escape o guerreiro; para o norte, junto à margem do rio do Eufrates, tropeçaram e caíram.
7 Quem é este que sobe como o Nilo, cujas águas se movem como rios?
8 O Egito vem subindo como o Nilo, e [suas] águas se agitam como rios, e disse: Subirei, [e] cobrirei a terra; destruirei a cidade, e os que nela habitam.
9 Subi, cavalos, e rangei, carruagens; e saiam os guerreiros; os de Cuxe e os de Pute que tomam escudo, e os de Lude que tomam e encurvam o arco.
10 Porém esse dia pertence ao Senhor DEUS dos exércitos, o dia de vingança, para ele se vingar de seus adversários; e a espada devorará, se fartará, e se embriagará do sangue deles; pois o Senhor DEUS dos exércitos tem [para si] um sacrifício na terra do norte, junto ao rio Eufrates.
