Nahum 3:14-16
Christian Standard Bible
14 Draw water for the siege;
strengthen your fortresses.
Step into the clay and tread the mortar;
take hold of the brick-mold!
15 The fire will devour you there;
the sword will cut you down.
It will devour you like the young locust.(A)
Multiply yourselves like the young locust;
multiply like the swarming locust!
16 You have made your merchants(B)
more numerous than the stars of the sky.
The young locust strips[a] the land
and flies away.
