Nahum 3:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the locust spoileth and flieth away.
17 Thy princes are as the grasshoppers, and thy captains as the great grasshoppers which remain in the hedges in the cold day: but when the sun ariseth, they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
18 Thy [a]shepherds do sleep, O king of Assyria: thy strong men lie down: thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth them.
