Nahum 2:2

2:2 For the Lord will restore the majesty of Jacob,

as well as the majesty of Israel,

though their enemies have plundered them

and have destroyed their fields.

Nahum 2:4-13

2:4 The chariots race madly through the streets,

they rush back and forth in the broad plazas;

they look 10  like lightning bolts, 11 

they dash here and there 12  like flashes of lightning. 13 

2:5 The commander 14  orders 15  his officers;

they stumble 16  as they advance; 17 

they rush to the city wall 18 

and they set up 19  the covered siege tower. 20 

2:6 The sluice gates 21  are opened;

the royal palace is deluged 22  and dissolves. 23 

2:7 Nineveh 24  is taken into exile 25  and is led away; 26 

her slave girls moan 27  like doves 28  while they beat 29  their breasts. 30 

2:8 Nineveh was like a pool 31  of water 32  throughout her days, 33 

but now 34  her people 35  are running away; 36 

she cries out: 37  “Stop! Stop!” –

but no one turns back. 38 

2:9 Her conquerors cry out: 39 

“Plunder the silver! Plunder the gold!”

There is no end to the treasure;

riches of every kind of precious thing.

2:10 Destruction, devastation, and desolation! 40 

Their hearts faint, 41 

their knees tremble, 42 

each stomach churns, 43  each face 44  turns 45  pale! 46 

Taunt against the Once-Mighty Lion

2:11 Where now is the den of the lions, 47 

the feeding place 48  of the young lions,

where 49  the lion, lioness, 50  and lion cub once prowled 51 

and no one disturbed them? 52 

2:12 The lion tore apart as much prey as his cubs needed 53 

and strangled prey to provide food 54  for his lionesses;

he filled 55  his lairs with prey

and his dens with torn flesh.

Battle Cry of the Divine Warrior

2:13 “I am against you!” declares 56  the Lord who commands armies: 57 

“I will burn your chariots 58  with fire; 59 

the sword will devour your young lions; 60 

you will no longer prey upon the land; 61 

the voices of your messengers 62  will no longer be heard.”
