Nahum 3:14-16

American Standard Version

¹⁴ Draw thee water for the siege; strengthen thy fortresses; go into the clay, and tread the mortar; ^[a]make strong the brickkiln. ¹⁵ There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off; it shall devour thee like the canker-worm: make thyself many as the canker-worm; make thyself many as the locust. ¹⁶ Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the canker-worm ^[b]ravageth, and fleeth away.
