Nahum 2:2-4
New Century Version
Nahum 2:2-4
New Century Version
2 Destroyers have destroyed God’s people
and ruined their vines,
but the Lord will bring back Jacob’s greatness
like Israel’s greatness.
3 The shields of his soldiers are red;
the army is dressed in red.
The metal on the chariots flashes like fire
when they are ready to attack;
their horses are excited.
4 The chariots race through the streets
and rush back and forth through the city squares.
They look like torches;
they run like lightning.

Nahum 2:2-4
New International Version
2 The Lord will restore(A) the splendor(B) of Jacob
like the splendor of Israel,
though destroyers have laid them waste
and have ruined their vines.
3 The shields of the soldiers are red;
the warriors are clad in scarlet.(C)
The metal on the chariots flashes
on the day they are made ready;
the spears of juniper are brandished.[a]
4 The chariots(D) storm through the streets,
rushing back and forth through the squares.
They look like flaming torches;
they dart about like lightning.
