Nachum 3:7-9

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁷ And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is in ruins; who will bemoan her? From where shall I seek menachamim (comforters) for thee?

⁸ Art thou better than No Amon (Thebes), that was situated on the Nile, that had the mayim round about it, whose rampart was the yam, and her waters were her chomah?

⁹ Ethiopia and Mitzrayim were her strength, and it was boundless; Put and Luvim (Libya) were her allies.
