Nahum 2:3-5
3The shields of 1his warriors are dyed red, The warriors are dressed in 2scarlet, The chariots are fitted with 3flashing steel 4When he is prepared to march, And the juniper 5spears are brandished.4The 6chariots drive wildly in the streets, They rush around in the 7public squares; Their appearance is like torches, They drive back and forth like lightning flashes.5He remembers his 8officers; They 9stumble in their advance, They hurry to her wall, And the 10mantelet is set up.
