4Their aappearance is like the appearance of horses;
And like war horses, so they run.
51With a anoise as of chariots
They leap on the tops of the mountains,
Like the 2crackling of a bflame of fire consuming the stubble,
Like a mighty people arranged for battle.
6Before them the people are in aanguish;
7They run like mighty men,
They climb the wall like soldiers;
And they each amarch 1in line,
Nor do they deviate from their paths.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
Their appearance is like the appearance of horses,
and like war horses they run.
As with the rumbling of chariots,
they leap on the tops of the mountains,
like the crackling of a flame of fire
devouring the stubble,
like a powerful army
drawn up for battle.
Before them peoples are in anguish;
all faces grow pale.
Like warriors they charge;
like soldiers they scale the wall.
They march each on his way;
they do not swerve from their paths.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
They have the appearance of horses;
they gallop along like cavalry.
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.
At the sight of them, nations are in anguish;
every face turns pale.
They charge like warriors;
they scale walls like soldiers.
They all march in line,
not swerving from their course.

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Their appearance is like that of horses,
and they gallop like war horses.
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.
Nations writhe in horror before them;
all faces turn pale.
They attack as warriors attack;
they scale walls as men of war do.
Each goes on his own path,
and they do not change their course.

NLTNew Living Translation
They look like horses;
they charge forward like warhorses.
Look at them as they leap along the mountaintops.
Listen to the noise they make—like the rumbling of chariots,
like the roar of fire sweeping across a field of stubble,
or like a mighty army moving into battle.
Fear grips all the people;
every face grows pale with terror.
The attackers march like warriors
and scale city walls like soldiers.
Straight forward they march,
never breaking rank.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
Like the appearance of horses is their appearance,
and like horsemen they run;
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.
From before them nations writhe,
all faces turn pale.
They run like mighty warriors,
they scale the wall like men of war;
each goes on its own way,
and they do not swerve from their paths.

KJV 1900King James Version
The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses;
And as horsemen, so shall they run.
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.
Before their face the people shall be much pained:
All faces shall gather blackness.
They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war;
And they shall march every one on his ways,
And they shall not break their ranks:
