Nahum 2:7-10 - Nineveh's Treasures Will Be Taken

⁷ It is decreed: she shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maidens shall lead her as with the moaning of doves, beating upon their breasts. ⁸ Though Nineveh was of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back. ⁹ Take the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is no end of treasure or wealth out of all the precious things. ¹⁰ She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melts, and the knees strike together, and much pain is on all sides, and the faces of them all grow pale.
