Nahum 3:4-7
Christian Standard Bible
4 Because of the continual prostitution of the prostitute,
the attractive mistress of sorcery,
who treats nations and clans like merchandise
by her prostitution and sorcery,(A)
5 I am against you.(B)
This is the declaration of the Lord of Armies.
I will lift your skirts over your face
and display your nakedness to nations,
your shame to kingdoms.(C)
6 I will throw filth on you
and treat you with contempt;(D)
I will make a spectacle of you.
7 Then all who see you will recoil from you, saying,(E)
“Nineveh is devastated;
who will show sympathy to her?”
Where can I find anyone to comfort you?
Nahum 3:4-7
English Standard Version
4 And all for the countless whorings of the (A)prostitute,
(B)graceful and of deadly charms,
who betrays nations with her whorings,
and peoples with her charms.
5 (C)Behold, I am against you,
declares the Lord of hosts,
and (D)will lift up your skirts over your face;
and I will make nations look at (E)your nakedness
and kingdoms at your shame.
6 I will throw filth at you
and (F)treat you with contempt
and make you (G)a spectacle.
7 And all who look at you (H)will shrink from you and say,
“Wasted is (I)Nineveh; (J)who will grieve for her?”
(K)Where shall I seek comforters for you?
