Nahum 2:5
3 The shields of his mighty men are red; the valiant warriors are dressed in scarlet. The fittings of the chariots flash like fire on the day they are prepared, and the spears of cypress have been brandished.
4 The chariots dash through the streets; they rush around the plazas, appearing like torches, darting about like lightning.
He summons his nobles; they stumble as they advance. They race to its wall; the protective shield is set in place.
6 The river gates are thrown open and the palace collapses.
7 It is decreed that the city be exiled and carried away; her maidservants moan like doves, and beat upon their breasts.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
