Nahum 2:3-5
Legacy Standard Bible
3 The shields of [a]his mighty men are colored red,
The valiant men are dressed in (A)[b]scarlet,
The chariots are enveloped in [c]flashing steel
[d]When he is set up to march,
And the cypress (B)spears are brandished.
4 The (C)chariots race madly in the streets;
They rush wildly in the [e]squares;
Their appearance is like torches;
They dash to and fro like lightning flashes.
5 He remembers his (D)mighty ones;
They (E)stumble in their march;
They hurry to her wall,
And the [f]mantelet is set up.
Nahum 2:3-5
New International Version
3 The shields of the soldiers are red;
the warriors are clad in scarlet.(A)
The metal on the chariots flashes
on the day they are made ready;
the spears of juniper are brandished.[a]
4 The chariots(B) storm through the streets,
rushing back and forth through the squares.
They look like flaming torches;
they dart about like lightning.
5 Nineveh summons her picked troops,
yet they stumble(C) on their way.
They dash to the city wall;
the protective shield is put in place.
