Nahum 3:4-6
Good News Translation

4 Nineveh the whore is being punished.
Attractive and full of deadly charms,
    she enchanted nations and enslaved[a] them.

5 The Lord Almighty says,

“I will punish you, Nineveh!
    I will strip you naked
    and let the nations see you,
    see you in all your shame.
6 I will treat you with contempt
    and cover you with filth.
    People will stare at you in horror.
