Jubilee Bible

The Prophet Nahum 3:11-16 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

11. Thou also shalt be drunken; thou shalt be encompassed; thou also shalt seek strength because of the enemy.

12. All thy strongholds are like fig trees with the firstripe figs; if they are shaken, they even fall into the mouth of the eater.

13. Behold, thy people in the midst of thee shall be like women; the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies; the fire shall devour thy bars.

14. Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the mortar, make strong the brickkiln.

15. There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off; it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts.

16. Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven; the cankerworm spoils and flies away.
