Nahum 2:5
Berean Standard Bible
He summons his nobles; they stumble as they advance. They race to its wall; the protective shield is set in place.
Context
3The shields of his mighty men are red;
the valiant warriors are dressed in scarlet.
The fittings of the chariots flash like fire
on the day they are prepared,
and the spears of cypress
have been brandished.* 4The chariots dash through the streets;
they rush around the plazas,
appearing like torches,
darting about like lightning. 5He summons his nobles;
they stumble as they advance.
They race to its wall;
the protective shield is set in place. 6The river gates are thrown open
and the palace collapses. 7It is decreed that the city be exiled
and carried away;
her maidservants moan like doves,
and beat upon their breasts.
