they gallop along like cavalry.

5 With a noise like that of chariots

they leap over the mountaintops,

like a crackling fire consuming stubble,

like a mighty army drawn up for battle.

6 At the sight of them, nations are in anguish;

every face turns pale.

4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses;

And as horsemen, so shall they run.

5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap,

Like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble,

As a strong people set in battle array.

6 Before their face the people shall be much pained:

All faces shall gather blackness.

4 They look like horses;

they charge forward like warhorses.

or like a mighty army moving into battle.

6 Fear grips all the people;

every face grows pale with terror.

4 Their appearance is like the appearance of horses;

And like swift steeds, so they run.

5 With a noise like chariots

Over mountaintops they leap,

Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble,

Like a strong people set in battle array.

6 Before them the people writhe in pain;

All faces are drained of color.

4 They look like horses,

and they run like war horses.

5 It is like the noise of chariots

rumbling over the tops of the mountains,

like the noise of a roaring fire

burning dry stalks.

They are like a powerful army lined up for battle.

6 When they see them, nations shake with fear,

and everyone’s face becomes pale.

4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so do they run. 5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. 6 At their presence the peoples are in anguish; all faces are waxed pale.

4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so they run. 5 Like the noise of chariots, on the tops of the mountains, they leap; like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. 6 Before them the peoples are in anguish: all faces turn pale.

Every face turns pale. 

4 Their appearance is like that of horses,

and they gallop like war horses.

5 They bound on the tops of the mountains.

Their sound is like the sound of chariots,

like the sound of fiery flames consuming stubble,

like a mighty army deployed for war.

6 Nations writhe in horror before them;

all faces turn pale.

4 They have the appearance of horses,

devouring the stubble,

like a powerful army

drawn up for battle.

and like horsemen they run;

5 like the sound of chariots on the tops of the mountains, they leap about;

like the sound of a flame of fire

devouring stubble;

like a strong army arranged

in rows for battle.

6 From before them nations writhe,

all faces turn pale.

that is ready for battle.

6 When people see them, they tremble with fear.

All of their faces turn pale.

4 Their appearance is like the appearance of horses;

And like war horses, so they run.

They leap on the tops of the mountains,

Like the crackling of a flame of fire consuming the stubble,

Like a mighty people arranged for battle.

6 Before them the people are in anguish;

All faces turn pale.
