1 Doomed is the lying, murderous city,full of wealth to be looted and plundered!
2 Listen! The crack of the whip,the rattle of wheels,the gallop of horses,the jolting of chariots!
3 Horsemen charge,swords flash, spears gleam!Corpses are piled high,dead bodies without number —men stumble over them!
4 Nineveh the whore is being punished.Attractive and full of deadly charms,she enchanted nations and enslaved them.
5 The Lord Almighty says,“I will punish you, Nineveh!I will strip you nakedand let the nations see you,see you in all your shame.
