Jeremiah 46:5

Why have I seen it? They, panic-struck, are drawing back, Yea, their heroes, are crushed, Yea they have, fled, and not turned,—Terror round about! Declareth Yahweh.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

6Let not the swift, flee, Nor let the hero, escape,—Northward, beside the river Euphrates, have they stumbled, and fallen.
