Vers. 2.
The noyse of a whippe, and the noyse of the mouing of the wheeles, and the beating of the horses, and the leaping of the cha∣riots.
* 1.1THe confirmation of the punishment threatned before, taken from the maner after which the Assyrians shall be punished. For it shall be done by the Chaldees, the which shall breake in vpon the Niniuites with their chariots & horsemen, the which the Niniuites shall not withstand. And this force and power of the chariots and horsemen of the Chaldees is liuely by the figure Hypotyposis repre∣sented,* 1.2 as it were vnto the view & sight, That the Assyrians because of their wealth and strength of warre should not think these things to bee vaine, or the godly doubt of the issue and falling out of the matter, whom God would comfort in this place, by threatning the destruction of the enemies which afflicted or troubled them. Ther∣fore both their whippes, wherewith they shall rule their horses of their chariots, shall make a noyse, and feare the Assyrians, and the wheeles of their chariots shal be moued with such a force and vio∣lence, that nothing can stand against them. The horses themselues shall stampe with their feete, the which is a token of couragious and warlike horses: and lastly, The chariots drawne by the horses shall leape, and breake all things. And these things are in such sort set forth, as if the enemies were euen now at the gates, and hard at the heeles of the Assyrians.
