5. Behold, I am against you,declares the Lord of hosts,and will lift up your skirts over your face;and I will make nations look at your nakednessand kingdoms at your shame.
6. I will throw filth at youand treat you with contemptand make you a spectacle.
7. And all who look at you will shrink from you and say,“Wasted is Nineveh; who will grieve for her?” Where shall I seek comforters for you?
8. Are you better than Thebesthat sat by the Nile,with water around her,her rampart a sea,and water her wall?
