Nahum 3:5-7

The Voice

⁵ Eternal One: Look at Me and My armies.
        I stand against you, Nineveh!
    I will treat you like the harlot you are, lifting your dress over your face—
        peeling back your outward façade
    And exposing your true condition, your nakedness underneath.
        You will be humiliated and ashamed in front of the world.
⁶     I’ll throw all your own filth on you.
        I’ll treat you with contempt and make a humiliating public display of you.
⁷     Then the whole world will turn its back on you and flee, saying,
        “Poor, pitiful Nineveh—you are totally ruined.”
    Is there anyone who will sympathize with you?
        Where will I find anyone to comfort you?
