Woe to Nineveh

(A)Woe to the city of [a]bloodshed, completely full of deception and pillage;
Her prey never departs.
The (B)sound of the whip,
And the sound of the rumbling of the wheel,
Galloping horses,
And [b]bounding chariots!

And swords flaming, and (C)spears flashing,
(D)Many slain, a mass of corpses,
And (E)there is no end to dead bodies—
They stumble over [c]the dead bodies!
