New Testament

Nahum 3:9-13 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

9. Ethiopia was her might, And Egypt too, without limits. Put and Lubim were among her helpers.

10. Yet she became an exile, She went into captivity; Also her small children were dashed to pieces At the head of every street; They cast lots for her honorable men, And all her great men were bound with fetters.

11. You too will become drunk, You will be hidden. You too will search for a refuge from the enemy.

12. All your fortifications are fig trees with ripe fruit- When shaken, they fall into the eater's mouth.

13. Behold, your people are women in your midst! The gates of your land are opened wide to your enemies; Fire consumes your gate bars.
