6 "I will throw filth on you And make you vile, And set you up as a spectacle.
7 "And it will come about that all who see you Will shrink from you and say, 'Nineveh is devastated! Who will grieve for her?' Where will I seek comforters for you?"
8 Are you better than No-amon, Which was situated by the waters of the Nile, With water surrounding her, Whose rampart was the sea, Whose wall consisted of the sea?
9 Ethiopia was her might, And Egypt too, without limits. Put and Lubim were among her helpers.
10 Yet she became an exile, She went into captivity; Also her small children were dashed to pieces At the head of every street; They cast lots for her honorable men, And all her great men were bound with fetters.
11 You too will become drunk, You will be hidden. You too will search for a refuge from the enemy.
12 All your fortifications are fig trees with ripe fruit- When shaken, they fall into the eater's mouth.
