Nahum 2:1 Cross References - ECB

¹
THE FALL OF NINEVEH
He who shatters ascends in front of your face: guard the rampart; watch the way; strengthen your loins; strengthen your power mightily:

⁸ but if you go, Work! Strengthen for the war! Elohim stumbles you at the face of the enemy: for Elohim has force to help - and to stumble.

⁶ he who smote the people in wrath with a stroke without revolt, who subjugates the goyim in wrath persecutes; spares no one.

⁹ Behold, I send and take all the families of the north - an oracle of Yah Veh and Nebukadnets Tsar sovereign of Babel my servant - and bring them against this land and against the settlers and against all these goyim all around; and devote them and set them a desolation and a hissing; and eternal parched areas:

³ Line up your buckler and shield and draw near to war: ⁴ hitch the horses and ascend, you cavalry and stand with helmets: polish the javelins; enrobe the brigandines. ⁵ Why see I them terrorized? - apostatizing backward and their mighty crushed? - fleeing to a retreat, and not facing back? with terror all around? - an oracle of Yah Veh. ⁶ Neither the swift flee nor the mighty escape; they stumble and falter northward by the hand of the river Euphrates. ⁷ Who is this - ascending as a river? - whose waters agitate as the rivers? ⁸ Misrayim ascends as a river and his waters agitate as the rivers: and he says, I ascend and cover the earth; I destroy the city and the settlers. ⁹ Ascend, you horses! Halal, you chariots! Go forth, you mighty! - Kushies and Puties, manipulating the buckler; and Ludiym, manipulating and bending the bow: ¹⁰ for this is the day of Adonay Yah Veh Sabaoth - a day of avengement, to avenge him of his tribulators: and the sword devours and satiates - satiates with their blood for a sacrifice to Adonay Yah Veh Sabaoth in the north land by the river Euphrates.

²³ How the hammer of the whole earth is cut apart and broken! How Babel becomes a desolation among the goyim!

¹¹ polish the arrows; fill the shields: Yah Veh wakens the spirit of the sovereigns of the Maday: for his intrigue is against Babel, to ruin therein; because it is the avengement of Yah Veh - the avengement of his manse. ¹² Lift the ensign on the walls of Babel, strengthen the guard; raise the guards; prepare the lurks: for Yah Veh both intrigues and works what he speaks against the settlers of Babel. ^{Revelation 18:1-17}

²⁰ You are my disintegrator and instruments of war: and with you, I shatter the goyim; and with you, I ruin sovereigndoms; ²¹ and with you, I shatter the horse and his rider; and with you, I shatter the chariot and his rider; ²² and with you, I shatter man and woman; and with you, I shatter aged and lad; and with you, I shatter the youth and the virgin; ²³ and I shatter the tender and his drove; and with you, I shatter the cultivator and his yoke; and with you, I shatter governors and prefects:

⁹ Call this out among the goyim! Hallow war! Waken the mighty! Draw all the men of war near! Ascend them! ¹⁰ Forge your plowshares into swords and your psalmpicks into javelins! Have the vanquished say, I am mighty. ¹¹ Hurry and come, all you goyim! And gather yourselves together all around: and there have your mighty ones descend, O Yah Veh.

¹⁴ Bail waters for the siege; strengthen your fortresses: go into mire and tread the morter; strengthen the brickkiln: ¹⁵ there the fire consumes you; the sword cuts you off; deviours you as the cankerworm: multiply yourself as the cankerworm; multiply yourself as the locusts.
