Nahum 2:1-3
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

The Destruction of the Wicked City

2 A scatterer has come up against you.
    Guard the ramparts;
    watch the road;
gird your loins;
    collect all your strength.(A)

2 (For the Lord is restoring the majesty of Jacob,
    as well as the majesty of Israel,
though ravagers have ravaged them
    and ruined their branches.)(B)

3 The shields of his warriors are red;
    his soldiers are clothed in crimson.
The metal on the chariots flashes
    on the day when he musters them;
    the chargers[a] prance.(C)
