Nahum 3:12-14
English Standard Version

12 All your fortresses are (A)like fig trees
    with first-ripe figs—
if shaken they fall
    into the mouth of the eater.
13 Behold, your troops
    (B)are women in your midst.
The gates of your land
    are wide open to your enemies;
    fire has devoured your bars.

14 (C)Draw water for the siege;
    (D)strengthen your forts;
go into the clay;
    tread the mortar;
    take hold of the brick mold!

12 All your fortifications are (A)fig trees with [a](B)ripe fruit—
When shaken, they fall into the eater’s mouth.
13 Behold, your people are (C)women in your midst!
The gates of your land are (D)opened wide to your enemies;
Fire consumes your gate bars.
14 (E)Draw for yourself water for a siege!
(F)Strengthen your fortifications!
Go into the clay and tread the mortar!
Take hold of the brick mold!
