Nahum 3:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 Behold, thy people within thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be opened unto thine enemies, and the fire shall devour thy bars.
14 Draw thee waters for the siege: fortify thy strongholds: go into the clay, and temper the mortar: make strong brick.
15 There shall the fire devour thee: the sword shall cut thee off: it shall eat thee up like the [a]locusts, though thou be multiplied like the locusts, and multiplied like the grasshopper.
