Book 34 : NAHUM - Chapter 003

003:001

The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots

003:002

The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses

003:003

Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts

003:004

Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame

003:005

And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock

003:006

And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee

003:007

Art 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

003:008

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

003:009

Yet 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

003:010

Thou also shalt be drunken: thou shalt be hid, thou also shalt seek strength because of the enemy

003:011

All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater

003:012

Behold, thy people in the midst of thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies: the fire shall devour thy bars

003:013

Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the morter, make strong the brickkiln

003:014

There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts

003:015

Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and fleeth away

003:016

Thy crowned are as the locusts, and thy captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are

003:017

Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria: thy nobles shall dwell in the dust: thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth them

003:018

There is no healing of thy bruise; thy wound is grievous: all that hear the bruit of thee shall clap the hands over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?
