⁶ I will throw filth on you.
I will make you look like a fool.
I will make you a sight to be seen.
⁷ Everyone who sees you will run from you, saying,
‘Nineveh has been violently destroyed!
Who will feel sorry for her?’
Where can I find anyone to comfort you?”

⁸ Are you better than No-amon,^[a] which sits by the streams of the Nile
with water surrounding her?
The sea was ⌞her⌟ defense.
The water was her wall.
