Nahum 2:5-7
New Century Version
Nahum 2:5-7
New Century Version
5 He[a] calls his officers,
but they stumble on the way.
They hurry to the city wall,
and the shield is put into place.
6 The river gates are thrown open,
and the palace is destroyed.
7 It has been announced that the people of Nineveh
will be captured and carried away.
The slave girls moan like doves
and beat their breasts, because they are sad.
