Nahum 3:16-18
Christian Standard Bible
16 You have made your merchants(A)
more numerous than the stars of the sky.
The young locust strips[a] the land
and flies away.
17 Your court officials are like the swarming locust,
and your scribes like clouds of locusts,
which settle on the walls on a cold day;
when the sun rises, they take off,
and no one knows where they are.
18 King of Assyria, your shepherds slumber;(B)
your officers sleep.
Your people are scattered across the mountains(C)
with no one to gather them together.(D)
