Nahum 3:1-6
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
1
Woe to the bloody city, completely full of lies
and
pillage;
Her
prey does not leave.
2
The sound of the whip,
The sound of the roar of the wheel,
Galloping horses
And bounding chariots!
3
Horsemen 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.
5
'Behold, I am against you,' declares the
Lord
of armies;
'And I will lift up your skirts over your face,
And show the nations your nakedness,
And the kingdoms your shame.
6
I will throw filth on you
And declare you worthless,
And set you up as a spectacle.
King James Version
Chapter 3
1
Woe to the bloody city! it is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departeth not;
2
The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
3
The 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:
4
Because 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.
5
Behold, I am against thee, saith the
Lord
of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.
6
And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
1
Woe to the city of blood,
totally deceitful,
full of plunder,
never without prey.
2
The crack of the whip
and rumble of the wheel,
galloping horse
and jolting chariot!
3
Charging horseman,
flashing sword,
shining spear;
heaps of slain,
mounds of corpses,
dead bodies without end —
they stumble over their dead.
4
Because of the continual prostitution of the prostitute,
the attractive mistress of sorcery,
who treats nations and clans like merchandise
by her prostitution and sorcery,
5
I am against you. This is the declaration of the
Lord
of Armies. I will lift your skirts over your face
and display your nakedness to nations,
your shame to kingdoms.
6
I will throw filth on you
and treat you with contempt;
I will make a spectacle of you.
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
1
What sorrow awaits Nineveh,
the city of murder and lies!
She is crammed with wealth
and is never without victims.
2
Hear the crack of whips,
the rumble of wheels!
Horses’ hooves pound,
and chariots clatter wildly.
3
See 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.
4
All 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.
5
'I am your enemy!'
says the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
'And now I will lift your skirts
and show all the earth your nakedness and shame.
6
I will cover you with filth
and show the world how vile you really are.
English Standard Version
Chapter 3
1
Woe to the bloody city,
all full of lies and plunder —
no end to the prey!
2
The crack of the whip, and rumble of the wheel,
galloping horse and bounding chariot!
3
Horsemen charging,
flashing sword and glittering spear,
hosts of slain,
heaps of corpses,
dead bodies without end —
they stumble over the bodies!
4
And all for the countless whorings of the prostitute,
graceful and of deadly charms,
who betrays nations with her whorings,
and peoples with her charms.
5
Behold, I am against you,
declares the
Lord
of hosts,
and will lift up your skirts over your face;
and I will make nations look at your nakedness
and kingdoms at your shame.
6
I will throw filth at you
and treat you with contempt
and make you a spectacle.
New International Version
Chapter 3
1
Woe to the city of blood,
full of lies,
full of plunder,
never without victims!
2
The crack of whips,
the clatter of wheels,
galloping horses
and jolting chariots!
3
Charging cavalry,
flashing swords
and glittering spears!
Many casualties,
piles of dead,
bodies without number,
people stumbling over the corpses—
4
all because of the wanton lust of a prostitute,
alluring, the mistress of sorceries,
who enslaved nations by her prostitution
and peoples by her witchcraft.
5
"I am against you," declares the
Lord
Almighty.
"I will lift your skirts over your face.
I will show the nations your nakedness
and the kingdoms your shame.
6
I will pelt you with filth,
I will treat you with contempt
and make you a spectacle.
New King James Version
Chapter 3
1
Woe to the bloody city!
It
is
all full of lies
and
robbery.
Its
victim never departs.
2
The noise of a whip
And the noise of rattling wheels,
Of galloping horses,
Of clattering chariots!
3
Horsemen charge with bright sword and glittering spear.
There is
a multitude of slain,
A great number of bodies,
Countless corpses—
They stumble over the corpses—
4
Because of the multitude of harlotries of the seductive harlot,
The mistress of sorceries,
Who sells nations through her harlotries,
And families through her sorceries.
5
“Behold, I
am
against you,” says the
Lord
of hosts;
“I will lift your skirts over your face,
I will show the nations your nakedness,
And the kingdoms your shame.
6
I will cast abominable filth upon you,
Make you vile,
And make you a spectacle.
