Nahum 2:3-5

Tree of Life Version

³ For Adonai turned aside Jacob’s pride
like Israel’s pride—
for spoilers emptied them out
and ruined their vine branches.
⁴ He makes the shield of warriors’ red—
valiant men are clad in scarlet!
the chariot burns with metal fire
    on the day of his preparation,
The fir trees are shaken.
⁵ The chariots dash madly about through the streets,
rushing to and fro in the plazas,
their appearance is like torches,
    darting like flashes of lightning.
