'Chariots' in the Bible

The shields deployed by Israel's elite forces are scarlet, their valiant men are clothed in crimson. When they are prepared, the polished armament on their chariots will shine, and lances will be brandished about ferociously.

Their chariots storm through the streets, jostling each other along broad avenues. They look like torches, as they dart around like lightning.

"I am against you," declares the LORD of the Heavenly Armies, "and I will send your chariots up in smoke. A sword will devour your young lions, I will eliminate your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers will no longer be heard."

The crack of whips and the clamor of wheels! The galloping horses and the bounding chariots!
