Nahum 3:14-16

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁴ Waters of a siege draw for thyself, Strengthen thy fortresses, Enter into mire, and tread on clay, Make strong a brick-kiln.

¹⁵ There consume thee doth a fire, Cut thee off doth a sword, It doth consume thee as a cankerworm! Make thyself heavy as the cankerworm, Make thyself heavy as the locust.

¹⁶ Multiply thy merchants above the stars of the heavens, The cankerworm hath stripped off, and doth flee away.
