Nahum 2:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 It is decreed[a] that the city[b] be exiled,
its slave women led away,
moaning like doves
and beating their breasts.(A)
8 Nineveh is like a pool
whose waters[c] run away.
“Halt! Halt!”—
but no one turns back.(B)
9 “Plunder the silver;
plunder the gold!
There is no end of treasure!
An abundance of every precious thing!”
