  • Nah 1:7-9 : 7 The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He knows those who take refuge in him. 8 But with an overwhelming flood he will make an end of Nineveh; he will pursue his enemies into darkness. 9 Whatever you plot against the Lord, he will bring it to an end; trouble will not come a second time. 10 Though they are entangled in thorns and drunk from their wine, they will be consumed like dry stubble. 11 From you, Nineveh, has come one who plots evil against the Lord and devises wicked plans. 12 This is what the Lord says: 'Although they have allies and are numerous, they will be destroyed and pass away.

  • Nah 3:1-9 : 1 Woe to the city of blood, full of lies, packed with plunder, never without prey. 2 The sound of whips, the clatter of wheels, galloping horses, and jolting chariots. 3 Charging horsemen, flashing swords, glittering spears—a vast number of slain, a heap of corpses with no end. People stumble over the dead bodies. 4 All this because of the abundant prostitution of a well-favored harlot, a skilled sorceress, who ensnares nations with her lust and peoples with her witchcraft. 5 Behold, I am against you, declares the LORD of hosts. I will lift up your skirts over your face. I will show the nations your nakedness and the kingdoms your shame. 6 I will throw filth on you, treat you with contempt, and make you a spectacle. 7 Everyone who sees you will flee from you, saying, 'Nineveh is devastated! Who will mourn for her? Where can I find anyone to comfort you?' 8 Are you better than Thebes, situated by the Nile with water around her? The river was her defense, the waters her wall. 9 Cush and Egypt were her strength, and there was no limit; Put and Libya were among her allies. 10 Yet she went into exile, carried away into captivity. Her infants were dashed to pieces at every street corner. Lots were cast for her nobles, and all her great men were bound in chains. 11 You too will become drunk; you will go into hiding. You too will seek refuge from the enemy. 12 All your fortresses are like fig trees with the first ripe fruit; when they are shaken, they fall into the mouth of the eater. 13 Look, your people are like women within you. The gates of your land are wide open to your enemies, and fire has consumed your bars. 14 Draw water for the siege, strengthen your fortresses. Go into the clay and tread the mortar; take hold of the brick mold. 15 There the fire will devour you; the sword will cut you down. It will consume you like the young locusts. Multiply yourselves like locusts; increase yourselves like swarming locusts. 16 You have multiplied your merchants more than the stars of the heavens. The young locust strips the land and flies away. 17 Your crowned guards are like locusts, and your officials are like swarms of locusts camping in the walls on a cold day. When the sun rises, they flee away, and no one knows where they are. 18 Your shepherds are asleep, O king of Assyria; your nobles lie down in slumber. Your people are scattered on the mountains, and there is no one to gather them. 19 There is no healing for your wound; your injury is fatal. All who hear the news about you will clap their hands over you. For who has not suffered your endless cruelty?

And his son Esarhaddon reigned in his place.
  • Ezek 31:3-9 : 3 Behold, Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon, with beautiful branches, dense shade, and towering height, its top reaching among the thick clouds. 4 The waters nourished it; the deep made it grow tall, sending its rivers around its planting place, and they watered all the trees of the field. 5 So it grew taller than all the trees of the field; its branches multiplied, and its boughs grew long because of the abundance of water as it sent them out. 6 All the birds of the sky nested in its branches, every beast of the field gave birth under its boughs, and all the great nations lived in its shade. 7 It was majestic in its size, with long branches, because its roots reached abundant waters. 8 The cedars in God's garden could not rival it; the cypresses could not compare to its branches, and the plane trees were not like its boughs. No tree in the garden of God was equal to it in beauty. 9 I made it beautiful with its many branches, and all the trees of Eden, which were in the garden of God, envied it. 10 Therefore, this is what the Lord GOD says: Because it grew tall, lifting its top among the clouds, and its heart became arrogant because of its height, 11 I handed it over to a mighty ruler among the nations; he dealt with it according to its wickedness. I drove it out. 12 Foreigners, the most ruthless of nations, cut it down and abandoned it. Its branches fell on the mountains and in all the valleys; its boughs were broken in all the ravines of the earth, and all the nations of the earth left its shade. 13 All the birds of the sky rested on its fallen trunk, and all the wild animals were among its branches. 14 This happened so that no trees beside the abundant waters may grow tall enough to reach the clouds, nor lift their tops among the thick branches, and no trees that drink water will stand before them in their height. For they have all been consigned to death, to the lower earth, among the sons of men, with those who go down to the pit. 15 This is what the Lord GOD says: On the day it went down to Sheol, I caused mourning; I covered the deep because of it, restrained its rivers, and held back the abundant waters. I clothed Lebanon in gloom because of it, and all the trees of the field withered away over it. 16 I made the nations quake at the sound of its fall when I brought it down to Sheol along with those who descend to the pit. Then all the trees of Eden, the choicest and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the lower earth. 17 They too went down to Sheol with it, to join the slain by the sword, along with its supporters who had lived in its shadow among the nations. 18 To whom can you be compared in glory and greatness among the trees of Eden? Yet you too will be brought down to the lower earth, lying among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his hordes, declares the Lord GOD.
