Nahum 3:4-7
New International Version
4 all because of the wanton lust of a prostitute,
alluring, the mistress of sorceries,(A)
who enslaved nations by her prostitution(B)
and peoples by her witchcraft.
5 “I am against(C) you,” declares the Lord Almighty.
“I will lift your skirts(D) over your face.
I will show the nations your nakedness(E)
and the kingdoms your shame.
6 I will pelt you with filth,(F)
I will treat you with contempt(G)
and make you a spectacle.(H)
7 All who see you will flee(I) from you and say,
‘Nineveh(J) is in ruins(K)—who will mourn for her?’(L)
Where can I find anyone to comfort(M) you?”

4 Innumerable are the harlotries of this well-favored whore,
this mistress of witchcraft,
who enslaves nations through her fornication
and families through her sorcery.
God’s Decree against Nineveh
5 “Look, I am against you,” declares the Lord of the Heavenly Armies,
“so I will pull up your dress over your face.
I will show your nakedness to the nations,
and your disgrace to the kingdoms.
6 I will hurl abominable filth upon you,
making you look foolish,
and making an example of you.
7 It will be that everyone who looks at you will run away, saying,
‘Nineveh has been violently overthrown!
Who will mourn for her?
Where will I find anyone to comfort you?’”
