9 And G2532 they had G2192 breastplates, G2382 as it were G5613 breastplates G2382 of iron; G4603 and G2532 the sound G5456 of their G846 wings G4420 was as G5613 the sound G5456 of chariots G716 of many G4183 horses G2462 running G5143 to G1519 battle. G4171
He saith H559 among H1767 the trumpets, H7782 Ha, H1889 ha; H1889 and he smelleth H7306 the battle H4421 afar off, H7350 the thunder H7482 of the captains, H8269 and the shouting. H8643
His bones H6106 are as strong H650 pieces of brass; H5154 his bones H1634 are like bars H4300 of iron. H1270
The flakes H4651 of his flesh H1320 are joined together: H1692 they are firm H3332 in themselves; they cannot be moved. H4131 His heart H3820 is as firm H3332 as a stone; H68 yea, as hard H3332 as a piece H6400 of the nether H8482 millstone. When he raiseth up H7613 himself, the mighty H352 are afraid: H1481 by reason of breakings H7667 they purify H2398 themselves. The sword H2719 of him that layeth H5381 at him cannot hold: H6965 the spear, H2595 the dart, H4551 nor the habergeon. H8302 He esteemeth H2803 iron H1270 as straw, H8401 and brass H5154 as rotten H7539 wood. H6086 The arrow H1121 H7198 cannot make him flee: H1272 slingstones H68 H7050 are turned H2015 with him into stubble. H7179 Darts H8455 are counted H2803 as stubble: H7179 he laugheth H7832 at the shaking H7494 of a spear. H3591 Sharp H2303 stones H2789 are under him: he spreadeth H7502 sharp pointed things H2742 upon the mire. H2916
For every battle H5430 of the warrior H5431 is with confused noise, H7494 and garments H8071 rolled H1556 in blood; H1818 but this shall be with burning H8316 and fuel H3980 of fire. H784
Like the noise H6963 of chariots H4818 on the tops H7218 of mountains H2022 shall they leap, H7540 like the noise H6963 of a flame H3851 of fire H784 that devoureth H398 the stubble, H7179 as a strong H6099 people H5971 set in battle H4421 array. H6186 Before their face H6440 the people H5971 shall be much pained: H2342 all faces H6440 shall gather H6908 blackness. H6289 They shall run H7323 like mighty men; H1368 they shall climb H5927 the wall H2346 like men H582 of war; H4421 and they shall march H3212 every one H376 on his ways, H1870 and they shall not break H5670 their ranks: H734 Neither shall one H376 thrust H1766 another; H251 they shall walk H3212 every one H1397 in his path: H4546 and when they fall H5307 upon the sword, H7973 they shall not be wounded. H1214
The chariots H7393 shall rage H1984 in the streets, H2351 they shall justle one against another H8264 in the broad ways: H7339 they shall seem H4758 like torches, H3940 they shall run H7323 like the lightnings. H1300 He shall recount H2142 his worthies: H117 they shall stumble H3782 in their walk; H1979 they shall make haste H4116 to the wall H2346 thereof, and the defence H5526 shall be prepared. H3559
And G2532 thus G3779 I saw G1492 the horses G2462 in G1722 the vision, G3706 and G2532 them that sat G2521 on G1909 them, G846 having G2192 breastplates G2382 of fire, G4447 and G2532 of jacinth, G5191 and G2532 brimstone: G2306 and G2532 the heads G2776 of the horses G2462 were as G5613 the heads G2776 of lions; G3023 and G2532 out of G1537 their G846 mouths G4750 issued G1607 fire G4442 and G2532 smoke G2586 and G2532 brimstone.
