Nahum 3:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
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.
7
And it will come about that all who see you
Will shrink from you and say,
‘Nineveh is devastated!
Who will have sympathy for her?’
Where shall I seek comforters for you?'
8
Are you better than No-amon,
Which was situated by the canals of the Nile,
With water surrounding her,
Whose rampart
was
the sea,
Whose wall
consisted
of the sea?
9
Ethiopia was
her
might,
Egypt too, without limits.
Put and Lubim were among her helpers.
King James Version
Chapter 3
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.
7
And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?
8
Art thou better than populous No, that was situate among the rivers, that had the waters round about it, whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was from the sea?
9
Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
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.
7
Then all who see you will recoil from you, saying,
"Nineveh is devastated;
who will show sympathy to her?"
Where can I find anyone to comfort you?
8
Are you better than Thebes
that sat along the Nile
with water surrounding her,
whose rampart was the sea,
the river her wall?
9
Cush and Egypt were her endless source of strength;
Put and Libya were among her allies.
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
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.
7
All who see you will shrink back and say,
‘Nineveh lies in ruins.
Where are the mourners?’
Does anyone regret your destruction?'
8
Are you any better than the city of Thebes,
situated on the Nile River, surrounded by water?
She was protected by the river on all sides,
walled in by water.
9
Ethiopia and the land of Egypt
gave unlimited assistance.
The nations of Put and Libya
were among her allies.
English Standard Version
Chapter 3
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.
7
And all who look at you will shrink from you and say,
"Wasted is Nineveh; who will grieve for her?"
Where shall I seek comforters for you?
8
Are you better than Thebes
that sat by the Nile,
with water around her,
her rampart a sea,
and water her wall?
9
Cush was her strength;
Egypt too, and that without limit;
Put and the Libyans were her helpers.
New International Version
Chapter 3
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.
7
All who see you will flee from you and say,
‘Nineveh is in ruins—who will mourn for her?’
Where can I find anyone to comfort you?"
8
Are you better than Thebes,
situated on the Nile,
with water around her?
The river was her defense,
the waters her wall.
9
Cush and Egypt were her boundless strength;
Put and Libya were among her allies.
New King James Version
Chapter 3
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.
7
It shall come to pass
that
all who look upon you
Will flee from you, and say,
‘Nineveh is laid waste!
Who will bemoan her?’
Where shall I seek comforters for you?”
8
Are you better than No Amon
That was
situated by the River,
That had the waters around her,
Whose rampart
was
the sea,
Whose wall
was
the sea?
9
Ethiopia and Egypt
were
her strength,
And
it was
boundless;
Put and Lubim were your helpers.
