Nahum 3:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 For the many debaucheries of the prostitute,
a charming mistress of witchcraft,
Who enslaved nations with her prostitution,
and peoples by her witchcraft:(A)
5 [a]I now come against you—
oracle of the Lord of hosts—
and I will lift your skirt above your face;
I will show your nakedness to the nations,
to the kingdoms your shame!(B)
6 I will cast filth upon you,
disgrace you and make you a spectacle;
