The seige and destruction of Nineveh

*2:1
He that *dasheth* in pieces is come up before thy face: *keep*the munition, watch the *way*, make thy *loins* strong, fortify thy power mightily.
*2:2
For the LORD *hath* turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Isreal: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and *marred* their vine branches.
*2:3
The shield of his mighty men is mad red, the valiant men are scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the *fir* trees shall be *terribly* shaken.
*2:4
The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall *justle* one against another in the broad *ways*: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
*2:5
He shall *recount* his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make hast to the wall thereof, and the defense shall be prepared.
*2:6
The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the place shall be *dissolved*.
*2:7
And *Huzzab* *shall be* led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves, *tabering* upon their breasts.
*2:8
But Nineveh *is of* old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. *Stand, stand*, shall they cry; but none shall look back.
*2:9
Take ye the *spoil* of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is none end of the *store* and glory out off all the *pleasant* furniture.
