Revised Literal Translation

Nahum 3:8-10

8Art thou better than populous No, that was situate among the rivers, that had the waters round about it, whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was from the sea?1

9Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers.2

10Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets: and they cast lots for her honourable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.
