There are three things which are stately in their march,
Even four which are stately when they walk:

Go up, you horses, and drive madly, you chariots,
That the mighty men may march forward:
Ethiopia and Put, that handle the shield,
And the Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.

They run like mighty men,
They climb the wall like soldiers;
And they each march in line,
Nor do they deviate from their paths.

They do not crowd each other,
They march everyone in his path;
When they burst through the defenses,
They do not break ranks.

The shields of his mighty men are colored red,
The warriors are dressed in scarlet,
The chariots are enveloped in flashing steel
When he is prepared to march,
And the cypress spears are brandished.

He remembers his nobles;
They stumble in their march,
They hurry to her wall,
And the mantelet is set up.

“For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans,
That fierce and impetuous people
Who march throughout the earth
To seize dwelling places which are not theirs.

Then the Lord will appear over them,
And His arrow will go forth like lightning;
And the Lord God will blow the trumpet,
And will march in the storm winds of the south.

To go to the mountain of the Lord, to the Rock of Israel.

Who is this who comes from Edom,
With garments of glowing colors from Bozrah,
This One who is majestic in His apparel,
Marching in the greatness of His strength?
“It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”

When You marched from the field of Edom,
The earth quaked, the heavens also dripped,
Even the clouds dripped water.

It shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall act promptly, for then the Lord will have gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.”

O God, when You went forth before Your people,
When You marched through the wilderness, Selah.

In indignation You marched through the earth;
In anger You trampled the nations.

It shall be when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall go out to battle, for God will have gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.”
