Book 21 : NEVIIM - TREISAR - NAHUM - Chapter 002

02:001

Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that announceth peace! Keep thy feasts, O Judah, perform thy vows; for the wicked one shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off

02:002

A maul is come up before thy face; guard the defences, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily!-

02:003

For HaShem restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.-

02:004

The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet; the chariots are fire of steel in the day of his preparation, and the cypress spears are made to quiver

02:005

The chariots rush madly in the streets, they jostle one against another in the broad places; the appearance of them is like torches, they run to and fro like the lightnings

02:006

He bethinketh himself of his worthies; they stumble in their march; they make haste to the wall thereof, and the mantelet is prepared

02:007

The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved

02:008

And the queen is uncovered, she is carried away, and her handmaids moan as with the voice of doves, tabering upon their breasts

02:009

But Nineveh hath been from of old like a pool of water; yet they flee away; 'Stand, stand'; but none looketh back

02:010

Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold; for there is no end of the store, rich with all precious vessels

02:011

She is empty, and void, and waste; and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and convulsion is in all loins, and the faces of them all have gathered blackness

02:012

Where is the den of the lions, which was the feeding-place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked, and the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid

02:013

The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with prey, and his dens with ravin

02:014

Behold, I am against thee, saith HaShem of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions; and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard
