Nahum 2:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, [a]the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be as in the fire and flames in the day of his preparation, and [b]the fir trees shall tremble.
4 The chariots shall rage in the streets: they shall run to and fro in the highways: they shall seem like lamps: they shall shoot like the lightning.
5 [c]He shall remember his strong men: they shall stumble as they go: they shall make haste to the walls thereof, and the defense shall be prepared.
