Nahum 2:8-10
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 2

8Though Nineveh was like a pool of water throughout her days, Yet they are fleeing; 'Stop, stop,' But no one turns back. 9Plunder the silver, Plunder the gold! For there is no end to the treasure— Wealth from every kind of desirable object. 10She is emptied! Yes, she is desolate and waste! Hearts are melting and knees wobbling! Also trembling is in the entire body, And all their faces have become pale!
King James Version

Chapter 2

8But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back.
9Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is none end of the store and glory out of all the pleasant furniture.
10She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 2

8Nineveh has been like a pool of water from her first days, but they are fleeing. "Stop! Stop!" they cry, but no one turns back. 9"Plunder the silver! Plunder the gold!" There is no end to the treasure, an abundance of every precious thing.
10Desolation, decimation, devastation! Hearts melt, knees tremble, insides churn, every face grows pale!
New Living Translation

Chapter 2

8Nineveh is like a leaking water reservoir! The people are slipping away. 'Stop, stop!' someone shouts, but no one even looks back. 9Loot the silver! Plunder the gold! There’s no end to Nineveh’s treasures — its vast, uncounted wealth. 10Soon the city is plundered, empty, and ruined. Hearts melt and knees shake. The people stand aghast, their faces pale and trembling.
English Standard Version

Chapter 2

8 Nineveh is like a pool whose waters run away. "Halt! Halt!" they cry, but none turns back. 9Plunder the silver, plunder the gold! There is no end of the treasure or of the wealth of all precious things. 10 Desolate! Desolation and ruin! Hearts melt and knees tremble; anguish is in all loins; all faces grow pale!
New International Version

Chapter 2

8Nineveh is like a pool whose water is draining away. "Stop! Stop!" they cry, but no one turns back. 9Plunder the silver! Plunder the gold! The supply is endless, the wealth from all its treasures!
10She is pillaged, plundered, stripped! Hearts melt, knees give way, bodies tremble, every face grows pale.
New King James Version

Chapter 2

8Though Nineveh of old was like a pool of water, Now they flee away. “Halt! Halt!” they cry; But no one turns back. 9Take spoil of silver! Take spoil of gold! There is no end of treasure, Or wealth of every desirable prize. 10She is empty, desolate, and waste! The heart melts, and the knees shake; Much pain is in every side, And all their faces are drained of color.
