Nahum 2:1-2
Lexham English Bible
The Divine Warrior Will Attack Nineveh
2 One who shatters[a] has come up against you!
Guard the fortification!
Watch the road![b]
Gird your loins!
Muster[c] all your strength!
2 For Yahweh will restore the majesty of Jacob
like the majesty of Israel;
for ravagers have ravaged them
and ruined their branches.
Nahum 2:1-2
New Living Translation
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!
2 Even though the destroyer has destroyed Judah,
the Lord will restore its honor.
Israel’s vine has been stripped of branches,
but he will restore its splendor.
