Nahum 2:8-13

2:8

But Nineveh
<05210>

[is] of old
<03117>

like a pool
<01295>

of water
<04325>_:

yet they shall flee away
<05127> (8801)_.

Stand
<05975> (8798)_,

stand
<05975> (8798)_,

[shall they cry]; but none shall look back
<06437> (8688)_.

{of old: or, from the days that she hath been} {look back: or, cause them to turn}

2:9

Take ye the spoil
<0962> (8798)

of silver
<03701>_,

take the spoil
<0962> (8798)

of gold
<02091>_:

for [there is] none end
<07097>

of the store
<08498>

[and] glory
<03519>

out of all the pleasant
<02532>

furniture
<03627>_.

{for...: or, and their infinite store, etc} {pleasant...: Heb. vessels of desire}

2:10

She is empty
<0950>_,

and void
<04003>_,

and waste
<01110> (8794)_:

and the heart
<03820>

melteth
<04549> (8738)_,

and the knees
<01290>

smite together
<06375>_,

and much pain
<02479>

[is] in all loins
<04975>_,

and the faces
<06440>

of them all gather
<06908> (8765)

blackness
<06289>_.

2:11

Where [is] the dwelling
<04583>

of the lions
<0738>_,

and the feedingplace
<04829>

of the young lions
<03715>_,

where the lion
<0738>_,

[even] the old lion
<03833>_,

walked
<01980> (8804)_,

[and] the lion's
<0738>

whelp
<01482>_,

and none made [them] afraid
<02729> (8688)_?

2:12

The lion
<0738>

did tear in pieces
<02963> (8802)

enough
<01767>

for his whelps
<01484>_,

and strangled
<02614> (8764)

for his lionesses
<03833>_,

and filled
<04390> (8762)

his holes
<02356>

with prey
<02964>_,

and his dens
<04585>

with ravin
<02966>_.

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)_.
