Nahum 2:1-3
Lexham English Bible

The Divine Warrior Will Attack Nineveh

2 One who shatters[a] has come up against you!
    Guard the fortification!
        Watch the road![b]
    Gird your loins!
        Muster[c] all your strength!
2 For Yahweh will restore the majesty of Jacob
    like the majesty of Israel;
for ravagers have ravaged them
    and ruined their branches.

The Enemy Army Conquers the City of Nineveh

3 The shields of his warriors are dyed red;
    The powerful men are dressed in scarlet.
The metal of the chariots[d] shines like fire on the day of battle,[e]
    and their spears quiver.
