Nahum 3:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ Nineveh, now it's your turn!
You will get drunk and try to hide
    from your enemy.
¹² Your fortresses are fig trees
    with ripe figs.
Merely shake the trees,
and fruit will fall
    into every open mouth.
¹³ Your army is weak.
Fire has destroyed the crossbars
    on your city gates;
now they stand wide open
    to your enemy.
