Nahum 3:14 in Context — Nahum 3
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.
16 Multiplicaste teus mercadores mais que as estrelas do céu; o inseto devorador estende as asas, e sai voando.
