Nahum 3:1-19

Woe
<01945>
to the bloody
<01818>
city
<05892>_!
it [is] all full
<04392>
of lies
<03585>
[and] robbery
<06563>_;
the prey
<02964>
departeth
<04185> (8686)
not; {bloody...: Heb. city of bloods}
The noise
<06963>
of a whip
<07752>_,
and the noise
<06963>
of the rattling
<07494>
of the wheels
<0212>_,
and of the pransing
<01725> (8802)
horses
<05483>_,
and of the jumping
<07540> (8764)
chariots
<04818>_.
The horseman
<06571>
lifteth up
<05927> (8688)
both the bright
<03851>
sword
<02719>
and the glittering
<01300>
spear
<02595>_:
and [there is] a multitude
<07230>
of slain
<02491>_,
and a great
<03514>
number of carcases
<06297>_;
and [there is] none end
<07097>
of [their] corpses
<01472>_;
they stumble
<03782> (8804) (8675) <03782> (8735)
upon their corpses
<01472>_:
{the bright...: Heb. the flame of the sword, and the lightning of the spear}
Because of the multitude
<07230>
of the whoredoms
<02183>
of the wellfavoured
<02896> <02580>
harlot
<02181> (8802)_,
the mistress
<01172>
of witchcrafts
<03785>_,
that selleth
<04376> (8802)
nations
<01471>
through her whoredoms
<02183>_,
and families
<04940>
through her witchcrafts
<03785>_.
Behold, I [am] against thee, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
and I will discover
<01540> (8765)
thy skirts
<07757>
upon thy face
<06440>_,
and I will shew
<07200> (8689)
the nations
<01471>
thy nakedness
<04626>_,
and the kingdoms
<04467>
thy shame
<07036>_.
And I will cast
<07993> (8689)
abominable filth
<08251>
upon thee, and make thee vile
<05034> (8765)_,
and will set
<07760> (8804)
thee as a gazingstock
<07210>_.
And it shall come to pass, [that] all they that look
<07200> (8802)
upon thee shall flee
<05074> (8799)
from thee, and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Nineveh
<05210>
is laid waste
<07703> (8795)_:
who will bemoan
<05110> (8799)
her? whence
<0370>
shall I seek
<01245> (8762)
comforters
<05162> (8764)
for thee?
Art thou better
<03190> (8686)
than populous
<0527> (8675) <0528>
No
<04996>_,
that was situate
<03427> (8802)
among the rivers
<02975>_,
[that had] the waters
<04325>
round about
<05439>
it, whose rampart
<02426>
[was] the sea
<03220>_,
[and] her wall
<02346>
[was] from the sea
<03220>_?
{populous...: or, nourishing, etc: Heb. No Amon}
Ethiopia
<03568>
and Egypt
<04714>
[were] her strength
<06109>_,
and [it was] infinite
<0369> <07097>_;
Put
<06316>
and Lubim
<03864>
were thy helpers
<05833>_.
{thy helpers: Heb. in thy help}
Yet [was] she carried away
<01473>_,
she went
<01980> (8804)
into captivity
<07628>_:
her young children
<05768>
also were dashed in pieces
<07376> (8792)
at the top
<07218>
of all the streets
<02351>_:
and they cast
<03032> (8804)
lots
<01486>
for her honourable men
<03513> (8737)_,
and all her great men
<01419>
were bound
<07576> (8795)
in chains
<02131>_.
Thou also shalt be drunken
<07937> (8799)_:
thou shalt be hid
<05956> (8737)_,
thou also shalt seek
<01245> (8762)
strength
<04581>
because of the enemy
<0341> (8802)_.
All thy strong holds
<04013>
[shall be like] fig trees
<08384>
with the firstripe figs
<01061>_:
if they be shaken
<05128> (8735)_,
they shall even fall
<05307> (8804)
into the mouth
<06310>
of the eater
<0398> (8802)_.
Behold, thy people
<05971>
in the midst
<07130>
of thee [are] women
<0802>_:
the gates
<08179>
of thy land
<0776>
shall be set wide
<06605> (8800)
open
<06605> (8738)
unto thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_:
the fire
<0784>
shall devour
<0398> (8804)
thy bars
<01280>_.
Draw
<07579> (8798)
thee waters
<04325>
for the siege
<04692>_,
fortify
<02388> (8761)
thy strong holds
<04013>_:
go
<0935> (8798)
into clay
<02916>_,
and tread
<07429> (8798)
the morter
<02563>_,
make strong
<02388> (8685)
the brickkiln
<04404>_.
There shall the fire
<0784>
devour
<0398> (8799)
thee; the sword
<02719>
shall cut thee off
<03772> (8686)_,
it shall eat thee up
<0398> (8799)
like the cankerworm
<03218>_:
make thyself many
<03513> (8690)
as the cankerworm
<03218>_,
make thyself many
<03513> (8690)
as the locusts
<0697>_.
Thou hast multiplied
<07235> (8689)
thy merchants
<07402> (8802)
above the stars
<03556>
of heaven
<08064>_:
the cankerworm
<03218>
spoileth
<06584> (8804)_,
and flieth away
<05774> (8799)_.
{spoileth: or, spreadeth himself}
Thy crowned
<04502>
[are] as the locusts
<0697>_,
and thy captains
<02951>
as the great grasshoppers
<01462>_,
which camp
<02583> (8802)
in the hedges
<01448>
in the cold
<07135>
day
<03117>_,
[but] when the sun
<08121>
ariseth
<02224> (8804)
they flee away
<05074> (8776)_,
and their place
<04725>
is not known
<03045> (8738)
where
<0335>
they [are].
Thy shepherds
<07462> (8802)
slumber
<05123> (8804)_,
O king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_:
thy nobles
<0117>
shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
[in the dust]: thy people
<05971>
is scattered
<06335> (8738)
upon the mountains
<02022>_,
and no man gathereth
<06908> (8764)
[them]. {nobles: or, valiant ones}
[There is] no healing
<03545>
of thy bruise
<07667>_;
thy wound
<04347>
is grievous
<02470> (8737)_:
all that hear
<08085> (8802)
the bruit
<08088>
of thee shall clap
<08628> (8804)
the hands
<03709>
over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness
<07451>
passed
<05674> (8804)
continually
<08548>_?
{healing: Heb. wrinkling}
