Nahum 2:10-12

Good News Translation

¹⁰ Nineveh is destroyed, deserted, desolate!
    Hearts melt with fear;
    knees tremble, strength is gone;
    faces grow pale.

¹¹ Where now is the city
    that was like a den of lions,
    the place where young lions were fed,
    where the lion and the lioness would go
    and their cubs would be safe?
¹² The lion killed his prey
    and tore it to pieces for his mate and her cubs;
    he filled his den with torn flesh.
