Nahum 3:12-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹² All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with their green figs: if they be shaken, they shall fall into the mouth of the eater.

¹³ Behold thy people in the midst of thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open to thy enemies, the fire shall devour thy bars.

¹⁴ Draw thee water for the siege, build up thy bulwarks: go into the clay, and tread, work it and make brick.
