Nahum 2:4-6

English Standard Version

^4 (A)The chariots race madly through the streets;
    they rush to and fro through the squares;
they gleam like torches;
    they dart like lightning.
⁵ He remembers ^(B)his officers;
    ^(C)they stumble as they go,
they hasten to the wall;
    the siege tower^[a] is set up.
^6 (D)The river gates are opened;
    the palace ^(E)melts away;
