Nahum 3:12-14

Good News Translation

¹² All your fortresses will be like fig trees with ripe figs: shake the trees, and the fruit falls right into your mouth! ¹³ Your soldiers are helpless, and your country stands defenseless before your enemies. Fire will destroy the bars across your gates. ¹⁴ Draw water to prepare for a siege, and strengthen your fortresses! Trample the clay to make bricks, and get the brick molds ready!
