Nahum 3:16
| ← Nahum 3:15 | Nahum 3:16 (KJV) | Nahum 3:17 → |
|---|---|---|
There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts.
|
Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and flieth away.
|
Thy crowned are as the locusts, and thy captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
