1An attacker advances against you, Nineveh . Guard the fortress¹, watch the road, brace² yourselves, marshal all your strength!
2The Lord will restore the splendor³ of Jacob like the splendor of Israel, though destroyers have laid them waste and have ruined their vines.
3The shields of his soldiers are red; the warriors⁴ are clad in scarlet⁵. The metal on the chariots flashes on the day they are made ready; the spears of pine are brandished⁶.
4The chariots storm through the streets, rushing back and forth⁷ through the squares. They look like flaming torches; they dart⁸ about like lightning.
5He summons his picked troops, yet they stumble on their way. They dash to the city wall; the protective shield is put in place.
6The river gates are thrown open and the palace collapses⁹.
7It is decreed that the city be exiled and carried away. Its slave girls moan like doves and beat upon their breasts.
8Nineveh is like a pool, and its water is draining away. "Stop! Stop!" they cry, but no one turns back.
9Plunder the silver! Plunder¹⁰ the gold! The supply is endless, the wealth from all its treasures!
10She is pillaged¹¹, plundered¹², stripped! Hearts melt, knees give way, bodies tremble, every face grows pale.
11Where now is the lions' den¹³, the place where they fed their young, where the lion and lioness went, and the cubs¹⁴, with nothing to fear?
12The lion killed enough for his cubs and strangled the prey¹⁵ for his mate, filling his lairs¹⁶ with the kill and his dens¹⁷ with the prey.
13"I am against you," declares the Lord Almighty¹⁸. "I will burn up your chariots in smoke, and the sword will devour¹⁹ your young lions. I will leave you no prey on the earth. The voices of your messengers will no longer be heard."
