Nahum, Chapter 3, verses 1-7

Woe to the bloody city, completely full of lies and pillage;
Her prey never departs.

The noise of the whip,
The noise of the rattling of the wheel,
Galloping horses
And^abounding chariots!

Horsemen charging,
Swords flashing, spears gleaming,
Many slain, a mass of corpses,
And^bcountless dead bodies—
They stumble over^cthe dead bodies!

⁴

All because of the many harlotries of the harlot,
The charming one, the mistress of sorceries,
Who sells nations by her harlotries
And families by her sorceries.

⁵

“Behold, I am against you,” declares the LORD of hosts;
“And I will^dlift up your skirts over your face,
And show to the nations your nakedness
And to the kingdoms your disgrace.

⁶

“I will throw^efilth on you
And make you vile,
And set you up as a spectacle.

⁷

“And it will come about that all who see you
Will^fshrink from you and say,
‘Nineveh is devastated!
Who will grieve for her?’
Where will I seek comforters for you?”
