Nahum 2:2-4

2:2

For the LORD
<03068>

hath turned away
<07725> (8804)

the excellency
<01347>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

as the excellency
<01347>

of Israel
<03478>_:

for the emptiers
<01238> (8802)

have emptied them out
<01238> (8804)_,

and marred
<07843> (8765)

their vine branches
<02156>_.

{the excellency of Jacob...: or, the pride of Jacob as the pride, etc}

2:3

The shield
<04043>

of his mighty men
<01368>

is made red
<0119> (8794)_,

the valiant
<02428>

men
<0582>

[are] in scarlet
<08529> (8794)_:

the chariots
<07393>

[shall be] with flaming
<0784>

torches
<06393>

in the day
<03117>

of his preparation
<03559> (8687)_,

and the fir trees
<01265>

shall be terribly shaken
<07477> (8717)_.

{in scarlet: or, dyed scarlet} {flaming: or, fiery}

2:4

The chariots
<07393>

shall rage
<01984> (8704)

in the streets
<02351>_,

they shall justle one against another
<08264> (8698)

in the broad ways
<07339>_:

they shall seem
<04758>

like torches
<03940>_,

they shall run
<07323> (8787)

like the lightnings
<01300>_.

{they: Heb. their show}

Nahum 2:13

2:13

Behold, I [am] against thee, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

and I will burn
<01197> (8689)

her chariots
<07393>

in the smoke
<06227>_,

and the sword
<02719>

shall devour
<0398> (8799)

thy young lions
<03715>_:

and I will cut off
<03772> (8689)

thy prey
<02964>

from the earth
<0776>_,

and the voice
<06963>

of thy messengers
<04397>

shall no more be heard
<08085> (8735)_.
