1. Doomed is the lying, murderous city,full of wealth to be looted and plundered!
2. Listen! The crack of the whip,the rattle of wheels,the gallop of horses,the jolting of chariots!
3. Horsemen charge,swords flash, spears gleam!Corpses are piled high,dead bodies without number —men stumble over them!
4. Nineveh the whore is being punished.Attractive and full of deadly charms,she enchanted nations and enslaved them.
5. The Lord Almighty says,“I will punish you, Nineveh!I will strip you nakedand let the nations see you,see you in all your shame.
