He shouts a battle cry against the sea and makes it dry up; he makes all the rivers run dry. Bashan and Carmel wither; the blossom of Lebanon withers.

But with an overwhelming flood he will make a complete end of Nineveh; he will drive his enemies into darkness.

I will pelt you with filth; I will treat you with contempt; I will make you a public spectacle.

Draw yourselves water for a siege! Strengthen your fortifications! Trample the mud and tread the clay! Make mud bricks to strengthen your walls!
