Nahum 2:3-10 - The Enemy Army Conquers The City Of Nineveh
3 The shield of the strong ones being red, the men of strength being clothed in scarlet: with fire of irons the chariots in the day of his preparing, and the cypresses were made to tremble. 4 The chariots shall be mad in the streets, they shall run up and down in the broad places: their appearance as flames; as lightnings shall they run. 5 He shall make mention of his chiefs: they shall be weak in their goings; they shall hasten to her wall, and the covering was prepared. 6 The gates of the rivers were opened, and the temple melted away.
7 It was fixed, she was led away captive, she went up and her maids being led as the voice of doves smiting upon their heart 8 And Nineveh it is as a pool of water from the days, and they fleeing, stood: they stood, and none looking back. 9 They plundered silver, they plundered gold: and no end to her splendid equipage; glory from all the vessels of desire. 10 She was emptied, and being emptied, and being made empty: and the heart melted, and a wavering of the knees, and trembling in all loins, and the face of them all gathered a glow.
