Nahum 2:11-13

Listen to Nahum 2:11-13
11 Dov’è il ricetto de’ leoni, e quel ch’era il pasco de’ leoncelli, dove andava il leone, il fiero leone, e il leoncello, senza che alcuno li spaventasse?
12 Quivi rapiva il leone per li suoi leoncelli abbastanza, e strangolava per le sue leonesse; ed empieva le sue grotte di preda, e i suoi ricetti di rapina.
13 Eccomi a te, dice il Signor degli eserciti; io arderò, e ridurrò in fumo i tuoi carri, e la spada divorerà i tuoi leoncelli; e sterminerò dalla terra la tua preda, e la voce de’ tuoi messi non sarà più udita.

Nahum 2:11-13 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO NAHUM 2

This chapter gives an account of the destruction of the city of Nineveh; describes the instruments of it as very terrible and powerful, and not to be resisted, Na 2:1-4. The manner of taking it, the flight of its inhabitants, and the spoil of its riches and treasures, Na 2:5-10 and the king and the princes thereof, compared to a lion, and a lion's whelp, are insulted as being without a den or dwelling place, because of their cruelty and ravening, for which the Lord was against them, and threatened them with utter ruin, which he brought upon them, Na 2:11-13.
