Nahum 3:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven; the cankerworm spoils and flies away.

¹⁷ Thy princes shall be as the locusts and thy captains as the great grasshoppers which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun arises, they flee away, and it is not known where they were.

¹⁸ Thy shepherds have slumbered, O king of Assyria; thy valiant ones are at rest; thy people scattered themselves upon the mountains, and there is no one to unite them.
