2. The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the prancing horses, and of the jolting chariots.
3. The horseman lifts up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of dead bodies; and there is no end of their corpses; they stumble over the corpses:
4. Because of the multitude of the harlotries of the seductive harlot, the mistress of sorceries, that sells nations through her harlotries, and peoples through her sorceries.
5. Behold, I am against you,
6. And I will cast abominable filth upon you, and make you vile, and will make you a spectacle.
7. And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon you shall flee from you, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? where shall I seek comforters for you?
8. Are you better than No Amon, that was situated among the rivers, that had the waters round about it, whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was the sea?
9. Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was without limit; Put and Lubim were your helpers.

11. You also shall be drunk: you shall be hidden, you also shall seek refuge from the enemy.
12. All your strongholds shall be like fig trees with the first ripe figs: if they are shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.
13. Behold, your troops in the midst of you are women: the gates of your land shall be set wide open unto your enemies: the fire shall devour the bars of your gates.
