Nahum 3:5 in Context — Nahum 3

3 O cavaleiro ataca, a espada brilha, e a lança resplandece; e [ali haverá] muitos mortos, e multidão de cadáveres; haverá corpos sem fim, e tropeçarão nos corpos mortos.

4 Por causa da multidão das prostituições da prostituta muito charmosa, mestra de feitiçarias, que vende os povos com suas prostituições, e as famílias com suas feitiçarias.

5 Eis que estou contra ti,diz o SENHOR dos exércitos, e descobrirei tuas saias sobre tua face, e mostrarei tua nudez às nações, tua vergonha aos reinos.

6 E lançarei sobre ti coisas abomináveis, e te envergonharei, e te tornarei em ridículo público.

7 E será que todos os que te virem fugirão de ti, e dirão: Nínive está destruída; quem terá compaixão dela? Onde buscarei para ti consoladores?
