Nahum 3:2-7
King James Version
2 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
3 The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:
4 Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts.
5 Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.
6 And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock.
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?

Nahum 3:2-7
New International Version
2 The crack of whips,
the clatter of wheels,
galloping horses
and jolting chariots!
3 Charging cavalry,
flashing swords
and glittering spears!
Many casualties,
piles of dead,
bodies without number,
people stumbling over the corpses(A)—
4 all because of the wanton lust of a prostitute,
alluring, the mistress of sorceries,(B)
who enslaved nations by her prostitution(C)
and peoples by her witchcraft.
5 “I am against(D) you,” declares the Lord Almighty.
“I will lift your skirts(E) over your face.
I will show the nations your nakedness(F)
and the kingdoms your shame.
6 I will pelt you with filth,(G)
I will treat you with contempt(H)
and make you a spectacle.(I)
7 All who see you will flee(J) from you and say,
‘Nineveh(K) is in ruins(L)—who will mourn for her?’(M)
Where can I find anyone to comfort(N) you?”
