Nahum 2:7-10
International Children’s Bible
7 It has been announced that the people of Nineveh
will be captured and carried away.
The slave girls moan like doves.
They beat their breasts because they are sad.
8 Nineveh is like a pool.
And its water is draining away.
“Stop! Stop!” the people yell.
But no one turns back.
9 Take the silver!
Take the gold!
There is no end to the treasure.
There is wealth of every kind.
10 Nineveh is robbed, ruined and destroyed.
The people lose their courage. Their knees knock with fear.
Stomachs ache. And everyone’s face grows pale from fright.
