Nahum 3:6-8
International Standard Version
6 I will hurl abominable filth upon you,
making you look foolish,
and making an example of you.
7 It will be that everyone who looks at you will run away, saying,
‘Nineveh has been violently overthrown!
Who will mourn for her?
Where will I find anyone to comfort you?’”
Thebes: an Example of God’s Justice
8 “Are you any better than Thebes,[a]
which sits by the upper Nile, surrounded by water?
The sea was her defense,
the waters her wall of protection.[b]
