Nahum 2:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall melt.
7 And Huzzab the Queen shall be led away captive, and her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves, smiting upon their breasts.
8 But Nineveh is [a]of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry: but none shall look back.

- Nahum 2:8 The Assyrians will flatter themselves and say, that Nineveh is so ancient that it can never perish, and is as a fishpool, whose waters they that walk on the banks cannot touch, but they shall be scattered, and shall not look back though men would call them.
