New King James Version

Nahum 2:2-4 New King James Version (NKJV)

2. For the Lord will restore the excellence of JacobLike the excellence of Israel,For the emptiers have emptied them outAnd ruined their vine branches.

3. The shields of his mighty men are made red,The valiant men are in scarlet.The chariots come with flaming torchesIn the day of his preparation,And the spears are brandished.

4. The chariots rage in the streets,They jostle one another in the broad roads;They seem like torches,They run like lightning.
