Nahum 2:6-8

Legacy Standard Bible

⁶ The gates of the rivers are opened,
And the palace is melted away.
⁷ So it stands fixed:
She is exiled, she is carried away,
And her maidservants are ^(A)moaning like the sound of doves,
^(B)Beating on their hearts.

⁸ Though Nineveh was like a pool of water throughout her days,
Now they are fleeing;
“Stand! Stand!”
But ^(C)no one ^[a]turns back.
