Nahum 2:7 BBE

⁵  The war-carriages are rushing through the streets, pushing against one another in the wide ways, looking like burning lights, running like thunder-flames.

⁶  He takes the record of his great men: they go falling on their way; they go quickly to the wall, the cover is made ready.

⁷  The river doorways are forced open, and the king's house is flowing away.

⁸  And the queen is uncovered, she is taken away and her servant-girls are weeping like the sound of doves, hammering on their breasts.

⁹  But Nineveh is like a pool of water whose waters are flowing away; Keep your place, they say; but no one is turning back.
