King James Version (KJV)
The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
Modern English
It’s sound will go like the serpent; for they will march with an army, and come against her with axes, as wood cutters.
Hebrew
קוֹלָ֖הּ כַּנָּחָ֣שׁ יֵלֵ֑ךְ כִּֽי־בְחַ֣יִל יֵלֵ֔כוּ וּבְקַרְדֻּמּוֹת֙ בָּ֣אוּ לָ֔הּ כְּחֹטְבֵ֖י עֵצִֽים׃
