Nahum 3:12-19

12All thy strongholdsH4013 are [like] fig-trees with the first-ripe figsH8384: if they be shakenH5128, they even fallH5307 into the mouthH6310 of the eater. 13Behold, thy peopleH5971 in the midstH7130 of thee are [as] womenH802: the gatesH8179 of thy landH776 are set wide openH6605 unto thine enemiesH341; the fireH784 devoureth thy barsH1280. 14DrawH7579 thee waterH4325 for the siegeH4692, strengthenH2388 thy fortressesH4013; goH935 into the clayH2916, and tread the mortar, makeH2388 strongH2388 the brick-kiln. 15There shall the fireH784 devourH398 thee; the swordH2719 shall cutH3772 thee off; it shall devourH398 thee like the cankerworm. MakeH3772 thyself many as the cankerworm, makeH3772 thyself many as the locustH697. 16Thou hast multipliedH7235 thy merchants more than the starsH3556 of the heavensH8064; the cankerworm spreadeth himself out and flieth away. 17Thy chosen men are as the locustsH697, and thy captains as swarms of grasshoppers, which campH2583 in the hedges in the cold dayH3117: when the sunH8121 ariseth they fleeH5074 awayH5074, and their placeH4725 is not knownH3045 whereH335 they are. 18Thy shepherdsH7462 slumberH5123, O kingH4428 of AssyriaH804; thy noblesH117 lie still; thy peopleH5971 are scattered upon the mountainsH2022, and no man gathereth them. 19There is no healing of thy breach; thy woundH4347 is grievous; all that hearH8085 the reportH8088 of thee clap the handsH3709 over thee; for upon whom hath not thy wickednessH7451 passedH5674 continuallyH8548?
