Nahum 2:4 in Context — Nahum 2

2 Porque o SENHOR restituirá a glória de Jacó, como a glória de Israel, ainda que saqueadores tenham os saqueado, e destruído os seus ramos de videira.

3 Os escudos de seus guerreiros são vermelhos, os homens valentes andam vestidos de escarlate; as carruagens brilham no dia em que são preparadas, as lanças se sacodem.

4 As carruagens se movem furiosamente pelas ruas, percorrem as vias; sua aparência é como tochas, correm como relâmpagos.

5 Seus nobres são convocados, porém tropeçam enquanto marcham; eles se apressam ao seu muro, e a proteção é preparada.

6 As comportas dos rios são abertas, e o palácio é arruinado.
