2 One who scatters is coming up against you.(A)
Man the fortifications!
Watch the road!

Nahum 2:1-2

The Fall of Nineveh
2 [a]Your enemy is coming to crush you, Nineveh.
Man the ramparts! Watch the roads!
Prepare your defenses! Call out your forces!

the Lord will restore its honor.
Israel’s vine has been stripped of branches,
but he will restore its splendor.
