Nahum 3:13 in Context — Nahum 3

11 Tu também estarás bêbada, [e] te esconderás; tu também buscarás fortaleza por causa do inimigo.

12 Todas as tuas fortalezas são [como] figueiras com os primeiros figos, que ao serem sacudidas, caem na boca de quem quer comer.

13 Eis que teu exército será como mulheres no meio de ti; as portas de tua terra se abrirão a teus inimigos; fogo consumirá teus ferrolhos.

14 Reserva para ti água para o cerco, fortifica as tuas fortalezas; entra na lama, pisa o barro, conserta o forno.

15 Ali o fogo te consumirá, a espada te cortará, te consumirá como o inseto devorador. Multiplica-te como o inseto devorador; multiplica-te como o gafanhoto.
