Nahum 3:8-13

8Art thou betterH3190 than No-Amon, that was situate among the riversH2975, [that had] the watersH4325 roundH5439 about her, whose rampartH2426 was the seaH3220, [and] of the seaH3220 was her wallH2346?

9Ethiopia was her strength, and EgyptH4714, and it was infinite; Phut and the LibyansH3864 wereH1961 her helpers.

10She too was carried away, she wentH1980 into captivityH7628: her infants alsoH1571 were dashedH7376 in pieces, at the topH7218 of all the streetsH2351; and they castH3032 lotsH1486 for her honourable men, and all her greatH1419 men were bound with chains.

11Thou alsoH1571 shalt beH1961 drunken: thou shalt beH1961 hid; thou alsoH1571 shalt seekH1245 a refugeH4581 from the enemyH341.

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.
