Nahum 2

¹He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face:

²For the Lord hath turned away the excellency of Jacob,

³The shield of his mighty men is made red,

⁴The chariots shall rage in the streets,

⁵He shall recount his worthies:

⁶The gates of the rivers shall be opened,

⁷And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up,

⁸But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water:

⁹Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold:

¹⁰She is empty, and void, and waste:

¹¹Where is the dwelling of the lions,

¹²The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps,

¹³Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts,
