Nahum 2

The fearful and victorious armies of God against Nineveh.

 2:1 ¶ He that dasheth in pieces 6327 z8688 is come up 5927 z8804 before x5921 thy face: 6440 keep 5341 z8800 the munition, 4694 watch 6822 z8761 the way, 1870 make [thy] loins y4975 strong, 2388 z8761 x4975 fortify 553 z8761 [thy] power 3581 mightily. 3966

 2:2 For x3588 the LORD 3068 hath turned away 7725 z8804 x853 the excellency 1347 of Jacob, 3290 as the excellency 1347 of Israel: 3478 for x3588 the emptiers 1238 z8802 have emptied x1238 them out, y1238 z8804 and marred 7843 z8765 their vine branches. 2156

 2:3 The shield 4043 of his mighty men 1368 is made red, 119 z8794 the valiant 2428 men y582 x376 [are] in scarlet: 8529 z8794 the chariots 7393 [shall be] with flaming 784 torches 6393 in the day 3117 of his preparation, 3559 z8687 and the fir trees 1265 shall be terribly shaken. 7477 z8717

 2:4 The chariots 7393 shall rage 1984 z8704 in the streets, 2351 they shall jostle one against another 8264 z8698 in the broad ways: 7339 they shall seem 4758 like torches, 3940 they shall run 7323 z8787 like the lightnings. 1300

 2:5 He shall recount 2142 z8799 his worthies: 117 they shall stumble 3782 z8735 in their walk; 1979 they shall make haste 4116 z8762 to the wall 2346 thereof, and the defense 5526 z8802 shall be prepared. 3559 z8717

 2:6 The gates 8179 of the rivers 5104 shall be opened, 6605 z8738 and the palace 1964 shall be dissolved. 4127 z8738

 2:7 And Huzzab 5324 z8717 shall be led away captive, 1540 z8795 she shall be brought up, 5927 z8717 and her maids 519 shall lead 5090 z8764 [her] as with the voice 6963 of doves, 3123 taboring 8608 z8781 upon x5921 their breasts. 3824

 2:8 But Nineveh 5210 [is] of old 3117 x4480 like a pool 1295 of water: 4325 yet they x1992 shall flee away. 5127 z8801 Stand, 5975 z8798 stand, 5975 z8798 [shall they cry]; but none x369 shall look back. 6437 z8688

 2:9 Take ye the spoil 962 z8798 of silver, 3701 take the spoil 962 z8798 of gold: 2091 for [there is] none x369 end 7097 of the store 8498 [and] glory 3519 out of all x4480 x3605 the pleasant 2532 furniture. 3627

 2:10 She is empty, 950 and void, 4003 and waste: 1110 z8794 and the heart 3820 melteth, 4549 z8738 and the knees 1290 smite together, 6375 and much pain 2479 [is] in all x3605 loins, 4975 and the faces 6440 of them all x3605 gather 6908 z8765 blackness. 6289

 2:11 Where x346 [is] the dwelling 4583 of the lions, 738 and the feeding place 4829 of the young lions, 3715 where x834 x8033 the lion, 738 [even] the old lion, 3833 walked, 1980 z8804 [and] the lion's 738 whelp, 1482 and none x369 made [them] afraid? 2729 z8688

 2:12 The lion 738 did tear in pieces 2963 z8802 enough 1767 for his whelps, 1484 and strangled 2614 z8764 for his lionesses, 3833 and filled 4390 z8762 his holes 2356 with prey, 2964 and his dens 4585 with ravin. 2966

 2:13 Behold, x2009 I [am] against x413 thee, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD 3068 of hosts, 6635 and I will burn 1197 z8689 her chariots 7393 in the smoke, 6227 and the sword 2719 shall devour 398 z8799 thy young lions: 3715 and I will cut off 3772 z8689 thy prey 2964 from the earth, 776 x4480 and the voice 6963 of thy messengers 4397 shall no x3808 more x5750 be heard. 8085 z8735
