Nahum 3:8-11
American Standard Version
8 Art thou better than No-amon, that was situate among the [a]rivers, that had the waters round about her; whose rampart was [b]the sea, and her wall was of the sea? 9 Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers. 10 Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity; her young children also were dashed in pieces at the head of all the streets; and they cast lots for her honorable men, and all her great men were bound in chains. 11 Thou also shalt be drunken; thou shalt be hid; thou also shalt seek [c]a stronghold because of the enemy.
