Nahum 3:1 (AKJV) American King James Version

1 Woe to the bloody city! it is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departs not;
2 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the prancing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
3 The horseman lifts up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcasses; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble on their corpses:
4 Because of the multitude of the prostitutions of the well favored harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that sells nations through her prostitutions, and families through her witchcrafts.
5 Behold, I am against you, said the LORD of hosts; and I will discover your skirts on your face, and I will show the nations your nakedness, and the kingdoms your shame.
6 And I will cast abominable filth on you, and make you vile, and will set you as a spectacle.
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look on you shall flee from you, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? from where shall I seek comforters for you?
8 Are you better than populous No, that was situate among the rivers, that had the waters round about it, whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was from the sea?
9 Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were your helpers.
10 Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets: and they cast lots for her honorable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.
11 You also shall be drunken: you shall be hid, you also shall seek strength because of the enemy.
12 All your strong holds shall be like fig trees with the first ripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.
13 Behold, your people in the middle of you are women: the gates of your land shall be set wide open to your enemies: the fire shall devour your bars.
14 Draw you waters for the siege, fortify your strong holds: go into clay, and tread the mortar, make strong the brick kiln.
15 There shall the fire devour you; the sword shall cut you off, it shall eat you up like the cankerworm: make yourself many as the cankerworm, make yourself many as the locusts.
16 You have multiplied your merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoils, and flees away.
17 Your crowned are as the locusts, and your captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun rises they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
18 Your shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria: your nobles shall dwell in the dust: your people is scattered on the mountains, and no man gathers them.
19 There is no healing of your bruise; your wound is grievous: all that hear the bruit of you shall clap the hands over you: for on whom has not your wickedness passed continually?
1 Woe H1945 to the bloody H1818 city H5892 GFS ! it is all H3605 full H4392 of lies H3585 and robbery H6563 ; the prey H2964 NMS departeth H4185 not H3808 NADV ;

3 The horseman H6571 lifteth up H5927 both the bright H3851 W-NMS sword H2719 GFS and the glittering H1300 spear H2595 NFS : and there is a multitude H7230 W-CMS of slain H2491 , and a great number H3514 of carcasses H6297 ; and there is none H369 W-NPAR end H7097 of their corpses H1472 ; they stumble H3782 upon their corpses H1472 :
4 Because of the multitude H7230 M-NMS of the whoredoms H2183 of the well favored H2896 harlot H2181 , the mistress H1172 of witchcrafts H3785 , that selleth H4376 nations H1471 NMP through her whoredoms H2183 , and families H4940 through her witchcrafts H3785 .

6 And I will cast H7993 abominable filth H8251 upon H5921 thee , and make thee vile H5034 , and will set H7760 thee as a gazingstock H7210 .
7 And it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , that all H3605 CMS they that look upon H7200 thee shall flee H5074 from H4480 thee , and say H559 , Nineveh H5210 LFS is laid waste H7703 : who H4310 IPRO will bemoan H5110 her ? whence H370 M-ADV shall I seek H1245 comforters H5162 for thee ?
8 Art thou better H3190 than populous H528 No H4996 , that was situate H3427 among the rivers H2975 , that had the waters H4325 OMD round about H5439 ADV it , whose H834 RPRO rampart H2426 was the sea H3220 NMS , and her wall H2346 was from the sea H3220 M-NMS ?
9 Ethiopia H3568 EMS and Egypt H4714 W-EMS were her strength H6109 , and it was infinite H369 W-NPAR ; Put H6316 and Lubim H3864 were H1961 VQQ3MP thy helpers H5833 .
10 Yet H1571 CONJ was she H1931 PPRO-3FS carried away H1473 , she went H1980 into captivity H7628 : her young children H5768 also H1571 CONJ were dashed in pieces H7376 at the top H7218 B-NMS of all H3605 NMS the streets H2351 : and they cast H3032 lots H1486 for H5921 W-PREP her honorable men H3513 , and all H3605 NMS her great men H1419 were bound H7576 in chains H2131 .
11 Thou H859 also H1571 CONJ shalt be drunken H7937 : thou shalt be H1961 VQI3FS hid H5956 , thou H859 also H1571 CONJ shalt seek H1245 strength H4581 because of the enemy H341 .
12 All H3605 NMS thy strongholds H4013 shall be like fig trees H8384 with H5973 PREP the firstripe figs H1061 : if H518 PART they be shaken H5128 , they shall even fall H5307 into H5921 PREP the mouth H6310 of the eater H398 .
13 Behold H2009 IJEC , thy people H5971 in the midst H7130 of thee are women H802 GFP : the gates H8179 CMP of thy land H776 shall be set wide open H6605 unto thine enemies H341 : the fire H784 CMS shall devour H398 VQQ3FS thy bars H1280 .
14 Draw H7579 thee waters H4325 for the siege H4692 , fortify H2388 thy strongholds H4013 : go H935 into clay H2916 , and tread H7429 the mortar H2563 , make strong H2388 the brickkiln H4404 .
15 There H8033 ADV shall the fire H784 CMS devour H398 thee ; the sword H2719 GFS shall cut thee off H3772 , it shall eat thee up H398 like the cankerworm H3218 : make thyself many H3513 as the cankerworm H3218 , make thyself many H3513 as the locusts H697 .
16 Thou hast multiplied H7235 thy merchants H7402 above the stars H3556 of heaven H8064 D-AMP : the cankerworm H3218 spoileth H6584 , and flieth away H5774 .
17 Thy crowned H4502 are as the locusts H697 , and thy captains H2951 as the great grasshoppers H1462 , which camp H2583 in the hedges H1448 in the cold H7135 day H3117 B-NMS , but when the sun H8121 ariseth H2224 they flee away H5074 , and their place H4725 is not known H3045 where H335 they are .
