Nahum 2:9-11
International Standard Version
Nahum 2:9-11
International Standard Version
9 Take the silver! Take the gold!
There is no end to the treasure—
fabulous riches of every imagination.
10 Nineveh[a] is devastated, deserted, and desolate.
Her heart melts, her knees knock.
Every stomach is upset,
every face grows pale.[b]
Nineveh: the Lion’s Den Destroyed
11 Where is this lion’s den?
Where is the place where the young lions fed,
where the lion and its mate walked with their young,
the place where they feared nothing?

Nahum 2:9-11
New International Version
9 Plunder the silver!
Plunder the gold!
The supply is endless,
the wealth from all its treasures!
10 She is pillaged, plundered, stripped!
Hearts melt,(A) knees give way,
bodies tremble, every face grows pale.(B)
11 Where now is the lions’ den,(C)
the place where they fed their young,
where the lion and lioness went,
and the cubs, with nothing to fear?
