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.
For the LORD
hath turned away
the excellency
of Jacob,
as the excellency
of Israel:
for the emptiers
have emptied them out,
and marred
their vine branches.
The shield
of his mighty men
is made red,
the valiant
men
are in scarlet:
the chariots
shall be with flaming
torches
in the day
of his preparation,
and the fir trees
shall be terribly shaken.

they shall justle one against another
in the broad ways:

they shall run
like the lightnings.

He shall recount
his worthies:
they shall stumble
in their walk;
they shall make haste
to the wall
thereof, and the defence
shall be prepared.

The gates
of the rivers
shall be opened,
and the palace
shall be dissolved.
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.
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.
Take ye the spoil
of silver,
take the spoil
of gold:
for there is none end
of the store
and glory
out of all the pleasant
furniture.

She is empty,

and waste:
and the heart

and much pain

and the faces
of them all gather
blackness.

Where is the dwelling
of the lions,
and the feedingplace
of the young lions,
where the lion,
even the old lion,
walked,
and the lion's
whelp,
and none made them afraid?

The lion
did tear in pieces

for his whelps,
and strangled
for his lionesses,
and filled
his holes
with prey,
and his dens
with ravin.

Behold, I am against thee, saith
the LORD
of hosts,
and I will burn
her chariots
in the smoke,
and the sword
shall devour
thy young lions:
and I will cut off
thy prey
from the earth,
and the voice
of thy messengers
shall no more be heard.
