Nahum 2:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 But Nineveh is [a]of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry: but none shall look back.
9 [b]Spoil ye the silver, spoil the gold: for there is none end of the store and glory of all the pleasant vessels.
10 [c]She is empty and void and waste, and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and sorrow is in all loins, and the faces [d]of them all gather blackness.
