Nahum 2:2-4

American Standard Version

² For Jehovah restoreth the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and destroyed their vine-branches. ³ The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots ^[a]flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the ^[b]cypress spears are brandished. ⁴ The chariots rage in the streets; they rush to and fro in the broad ways: the appearance of them is like torches; they run like the lightnings.
