Nahum 3:10-14 New English Translation (NET)

10. Yet she went into captivity as an exile;even her infants were smashed to pieces at the head of every street.They cast lots for her nobility;all her dignitaries were bound with chains.

11. You too will act like drunkards;you will go into hiding;you too will seek refuge from the enemy.

12. All your fortifications will be like fig trees with first-ripe fruit:If they are shaken, their figs will fall into the mouth of the eater!

13. Your warriors will be like women in your midst;the gates of your land will be wide open to your enemies;fire will consume the bars of your gates.

14. Draw yourselves water for a siege!Strengthen your fortifications!Trample the mud and tread the clay!Make mud bricks to strengthen your walls!
