Nahum 2:10-12
New Catholic Bible
10 “Plunder the silver!
Plunder the gold!
There is no end to the treasure,
an abundance of wealth
from precious things of every kind.”
11 Devastation, desolation, and ruin
confront faint hearts and trembling knees.
The loins of all are filled with anguish;
every face is drained of color.
Where Is the Lions’ Den?[a]
12 Where now is the lions’ den,
the cave where they fed their whelps,
where the lion and lioness cared for their cubs,
with no one to disturb them?
Footnotes
- Nahum 2:12 The princes and the armies of Assyria carry lions as their emblem. Nineveh is the den crowded with fruit of the plunder.
