Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.

And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock.

And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?

(A)Behold, I am against you,
    declares the Lord of hosts,
    and (B)will lift up your skirts over your face;
and I will make nations look at (C)your nakedness
    and kingdoms at your shame.
I will throw filth at you
    and (D)treat you with contempt
    and make you (E)a spectacle.
And all who look at you (F)will shrink from you and say,
“Wasted is (G)Nineveh; (H)who will grieve for her?”
    (I)Where shall I seek comforters for you?
