Nahum 3:11-13

Easy-to-Read Version

¹¹ So, Nineveh, you will also fall like a drunk. You will try to hide. You will look for a safe place away from the enemy. ¹² But Nineveh, all your strong places will be like fig trees. When new figs become ripe, people come and shake the tree. The figs fall into their mouths. They eat them, and the figs are gone.

¹³ Nineveh, your people are all like women—and the enemy soldiers are ready to take them. The gates of your land are open wide for your enemies to come in. Fire has destroyed the wooden bars across the gates.
