42: The bowH7198 and the lance-H3591 they shall holdH2388 cruel,H0394 they [are]H1992 and notH3808 shall show mercy-H7355 their voiceH6963 like the sea,H3220 shall roarH1993 and onH5921 horses,H5483 they shall rideH7392 Set in array,H6186 like a manH0376 for the battle,H4421 Against youH5921 daughterH1323 of Babylon.H0894
