Nahum 2:11-13

Listen to Nahum 2:11-13
11 Wo ist nun die Wohnung der Löwen und die Weide der jungen Löwen, da der Löwe und die Löwin mit den jungen Löwen wandelten, und niemand durfte sie scheuchen?
12 Der Löwe raubte genug für seine Jungen und würgte es für seine Löwinnen; seine Höhlen füllte er mit Raub und seine Wohnung mit dem, was er zerrissen hatte.
13 Siehe, ich will an dich, spricht der HERR Zebaoth, und deine Wagen im Rauch anzünden, und das Schwert soll deine jungen Löwen fressen; und will deines Raubens ein Ende machen auf Erden, daß man deiner Boten Stimme nicht mehr hören soll.

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.
