Nahum 2:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ Nineveh is like a pool,
    and now its water is draining away.
“Stop! Stop!” the people yell,
    but no one turns back.
⁹ ·Take [Plunder] the silver!
    ·Take [Plunder] the gold!
There is no end to the treasure—
    piles of wealth of every ·kind [precious/desirable thing].
¹⁰ ·Nineveh is robbed [^LEmpty!], ·ruined [desolate!], and destroyed.
    ·The people lose their courage [^LTheir hearts melt], and their knees knock.
    ·Stomachs ache [Bodies/Loins in anguish], and everyone’s face grows pale.
