Nahum 2:1

New King James Version

2 He^[a] who scatters has come up before your face.
Man the fort!
Watch the road!
Strengthen your flanks!
Fortify your power mightily.

Nahum 2:1

New International Version

2 ^[a]An attacker^(A) advances against you, Nineveh.
    Guard the fortress,
    watch the road,
    brace yourselves,
    marshal all your strength!

¹⁴Draw your water for the siege!
^(A)Fortify your strongholds!
Go into the clay and tread the mortar!
Make strong the brick kiln!

¹⁴Draw water for the siege,^(A)
    strengthen your defenses!^(B)
Work the clay,
    tread the mortar,
    repair the brickwork!
