Nahum 3:6-8
Christian Standard Bible

6 I will throw filth on you
and treat you with contempt;(A)
I will make a spectacle of you.
7 Then all who see you will recoil from you, saying,(B)
“Nineveh is devastated;
who will show sympathy to her?”
Where can I find anyone to comfort you?

8 Are you better than Thebes[a](C)
that sat along the Nile
with water surrounding her,
whose rampart was the sea,
the river[b][c] her wall?
