Nahum 3:5-7

Good News Translation

“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.
⁷ All who see you will shrink back.
    They will say, ‘Nineveh lies in ruins!
    Who has any sympathy for her?
    Who will want to comfort her?’”
