1 How terrible it will be for the city that has killed so many.It is full of liesand goods stolen from other countries.It is always killing somebody.
2 Hear the sound of whipsand the noise of the wheels.Hear horses gallopingand chariots bouncing along!
3 Horses are charging,swords are shining,spears are gleaming!Many are dead;their bodies are piled up—too many to count.People stumble over the dead bodies.
4 The city was like a prostitute;she was charming and a lover of magic.She made nations slaves with her prostitutionand her witchcraft.
5 “I am against you, Nineveh,” says the Lord All-Powerful.“I will pull your dress up over your faceand show the nations your nakednessand the kingdoms your shame.
