Rh :A day of darkness and of gloominess,
 * A day of clouds and of thick darkness,
 * As the morning spread upon the mountains:
 * A great people and a strong;
 * There hath not been ever the like,
 * Neither shall be any more after it,
 * Even to the years of many generations.
 * A fire devoureth before them;
 * And behind them a flame burneth:
 * The land is as the garden of Eden before them,
 * And behind them a desolate wilderness;
 * Yea, and nothing shall escape them.
 * 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:
 * Neither shall one thrust another;
