Nahum 2:9-11

International Standard Version

⁹ Take the silver! Take the gold!
    There is no end to the treasure—
        fabulous riches of every imagination.
¹⁰ Nineveh^[a] is devastated, deserted, and desolate.
    Her heart melts, her knees knock.
Every stomach is upset,
    every face grows pale.^[b]

¹¹ Where is this lion’s den?
    Where is the place where the young lions fed,
where the lion and its mate walked with their young,
    the place where they feared nothing?
