1 Woe to the bloody city! it is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departeth not; |
2 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots. |
3 The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses: ... |
6 And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock. |
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee? |
