Deuteronomy 28:7

Ver. 7. The Lord shall cause thine enemies—to be smitten before thy face— "Upon any invasion from foreign enemies, be their numbers and valour ever so great, God himself will undertake your cause; and so order it, that you shall always come off at last with entire victory:" for, fleeing seven ways imports a total overthrow, which made every man shift for himself, and run straggling hither and thither, without any order or leader, as soldiers do when they are entirely routed.
