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?”
Nahum 3:4-7
World English Bible
4 because of the multitude of the prostitution of the alluring prostitute, the mistress of witchcraft, who sells nations through her prostitution, and families through her witchcraft. 5 “Behold, I am against you,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and I will lift your skirts over your face. I will show the nations your nakedness, and the kingdoms your shame. 6 I will throw abominable filth on you, and make you vile, and will set you a spectacle. 7 It will happen that all those who look at you will flee from you, and say, ‘Nineveh is laid waste! Who will mourn for her?’ Where will I seek comforters for you?”
