Nahum 3:1-4
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
1Woe to the bloody city, completely full of lies and pillage; Her prey does not leave. 2The sound of the whip, The sound of the roar of the wheel, Galloping horses And bounding chariots! 3Horsemen charging, Swords flashing, spears gleaming, Many killed, a mass of corpses, And there is no end to the dead bodies— They stumble over the dead bodies! 4 All because of the many sexual acts of the prostitute, The charming one, the mistress of sorceries, Who sells nations by her sexual acts, And families by her sorceries.King James Version
Chapter 3
1Woe to the bloody city! it is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departeth not; 2The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
3The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:
4Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
1Woe to the city of blood, totally deceitful, full of plunder, never without prey. 2The crack of the whip and rumble of the wheel, galloping horse and jolting chariot! 3Charging horseman, flashing sword, shining spear; heaps of slain, mounds of corpses, dead bodies without end — they stumble over their dead. 4Because of the continual prostitution of the prostitute, the attractive mistress of sorcery, who treats nations and clans like merchandise by her prostitution and sorcery,New Living Translation
Chapter 3
1What sorrow awaits Nineveh, the city of murder and lies! She is crammed with wealth and is never without victims. 2Hear the crack of whips, the rumble of wheels! Horses’ hooves pound, and chariots clatter wildly. 3See the flashing swords and glittering spears as the charioteers charge past! There are countless casualties, heaps of bodies — so many bodies that people stumble over them. 4All this because Nineveh, the beautiful and faithless city, mistress of deadly charms, enticed the nations with her beauty. She taught them all her magic, enchanting people everywhere.English Standard Version
