Nahum 3:1-7
1WoeH1945 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892! it is all fullH4392 of liesH3585 and robberyH6563; the preyH2964 departethH4185 not;1
2The noiseH6963 of a whipH7752, and the noiseH6963 of the rattlingH7494 of the wheelsH212, and of the pransingH1725 horsesH5483, and of the jumpingH7540 chariotsH4818.
3The horsemanH6571 lifteth upH5927 both the brightH3851 swordH2719 and the glitteringH1300 spearH2595: and there is a multitudeH7230 of slainH2491, and a greatH3514 number of carcasesH6297; and there is none endH7097 of their corpsesH1472; they stumbleH3782 upon their corpsesH1472:2
4Because of the multitudeH7230 of the whoredomsH2183 of the wellfavouredH2580H2896 harlotH2181, the mistressH1172 of witchcraftsH3785, that sellethH4376 nationsH1471 through her whoredomsH2183, and familiesH4940 through her witchcraftsH3785.
5Behold, I am against thee, saithH5002 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635; and I will discoverH1540 thy skirtsH7757 upon thy faceH6440, and I will shewH7200 the nationsH1471 thy nakednessH4626, and the kingdomsH4467 thy shameH7036.
6And I will castH7993 abominable filthH8251 upon thee, and make thee vileH5034, and will setH7760 thee as a gazingstockH7210.
7And it shall come to pass, that all they that lookH7200 upon thee shall fleeH5074 from thee, and sayH559, NinevehH5210 is laid wasteH7703: who will bemoanH5110 her? whenceH370 shall I seekH1245 comfortersH5162 for thee?
