Nahum 3:9 in Context — Nahum 3

7 Tous ceux qui te verront fuiront loin de toi, Et l’on dira: Ninive est détruite! Qui la plaindra? Où te chercherai-je des consolateurs?

8 Es-tu meilleure que No-Amon, Qui était assise au milieu des fleuves, Entourée par les eaux, Ayant la mer pour rempart, La mer pour murailles?

9 L’Éthiopie et les Égyptiens innombrables faisaient sa force, Puth et les Libyens étaient ses auxiliaires.

10 Et cependant elle est partie pour l’exil, elle s’en est allée captive; Ses enfants ont été écrasés au coin de toutes les rues; On a jeté le sort sur ses nobles, Et tous ses grands ont été chargés de chaînes.

11 Toi aussi, tu seras enivrée, tu te cacheras; Toi aussi, tu chercheras un refuge contre l’ennemi.
