  1. Ezekiel 23:24 Lit wheels

The shields of [a]his mighty men are colored red,
The warriors are dressed in (A)scarlet,
The chariots are enveloped in [b]flashing steel
[c]When he is prepared to march,
And the cypress (B)spears are brandished.
The (C)chariots race madly in the streets,
They rush wildly in the [d]squares,
Their appearance is like torches,
They dash to and fro like lightning flashes.
