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

⁷ Beauty is stripped,
she is carried away;
her ladies-in-waiting moan
like the sound of doves,
and beat their breasts.
⁸ Nineveh has been like a pool of water
from her first days,
but they are fleeing.
“Stop! Stop!” they cry,
but no one turns back.
⁹ “Plunder the silver! Plunder the gold!”
There is no end to the treasure,
an abundance of every precious thing.
¹⁰ Desolation, decimation, devastation!
Hearts melt,
knees tremble,
loins shake,
every face grows pale!
