Nahum 3:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 Yet even she became an exile,
and went into captivity;
Even her little ones were dashed to pieces
at the corner of every street;
For her nobles they cast lots,
and all her great ones were put into chains.
11 You, too, will drink of this;
you will be overcome;(A)
You, too, will seek
a refuge from the foe.
12 But all your fortresses are fig trees,
bearing early figs;[a]
When shaken, they fall
into the devourer’s mouth.
Footnotes
- 3:12 Early figs: the refugees from Nineveh who escape to presumably secure fortresses.
