All those who bend the bow.

For she has been proudly defiant and presumptuous against the Lord,
Against the Holy One of Israel.

Lift up a signal in the land [to spread the news]!
Blow the trumpet among the nations!
Dedicate the nations [for war] against her;
Call against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz.
Appoint a marshal against her;
Cause the horses to come up like bristly locusts [with their wings not yet released from their cases].

Ezekiel 5:12
