Nahum 3:8-10

Amplified Bible

⁸ 
Are you better than ^[a]Thebes,
Which was situated by the waters of the Nile,
With water surrounding her,
Whose defense was the sea (the Nile),
Whose wall consisted of the sea?
⁹ 
Ethiopia was her strength,
And Egypt too, without limits.
^[b]Put and Lubim were among her helpers.
¹⁰ 
Yet she became an exile;
She went into captivity.
Her young children were dashed to pieces
At the head of every street;
They cast lots for her honorable men,
And all her great men were bound with chains.
