Nahum 3:4-7
New King James Version
4 Because of the multitude of [a]harlotries of the [b]seductive harlot,
(A)The mistress of sorceries,
Who sells nations through her harlotries,
And families through her sorceries.
5 “Behold, I am (B)against you,” says the Lord of hosts;
(C)“I will lift your skirts over your face,
I will show the nations your nakedness,
And the kingdoms your shame.
6 I will cast abominable filth upon you,
Make you (D)vile,[c]
And make you (E)a spectacle.
7 It shall come to pass that all who look upon you
(F)Will flee from you, and say,
(G)‘Nineveh is laid waste!
(H)Who will bemoan her?’
Where shall I seek comforters for you?”
Nahum 3:4-7
21st Century King James Version
4 because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavored harlot, the mistress of witchcraft, that selleth nations through her whoredom, and families through her witchcraft.
5 “Behold, I am against thee,” saith the Lord of hosts, “and I will uncover thy skirts upon thy face; and I will show the nations thy nakedness and the kingdoms thy shame.
6 And I will cast abominable filth upon thee and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock.
7 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?’ From whence shall I seek comforters for thee?”
