Nahum 3:6-8
New International Reader's Version

6 I will throw garbage at you.
    I will look down on you.
    I will make an example out of you.
7 All those who see you will run away from you.
    They will say, ‘Nineveh is destroyed.
    Who will mourn over it?’
Where can I find someone
    to comfort your people?”

8 Nineveh, are you better than Thebes
    on the Nile River?
There was water all around that city.
    The river helped to keep it safe.
    The waters were like a wall around it.
