Listen to Nahúm 3:3
3 la carga de la caballería,el fulgor de las espadas,el centellear de las lanzas,la multitud de muertos,los cuerpos amontonados,los cadáveres por doquier,en los que todos tropiezan.

Nahúm 3:3 Meaning and Commentary

Nahum 3:3

The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the
glittering spear
Or, "the flame of the sword and the glittering spear" F23; he rides with a drawn sword, which, being brandished to and fro, looks like a flame of fire; or with a spear made of polished iron, or steel, which, when vibrated and moved to and fro, glitters like lightning; a large number of which entering the city must be terrible to the inhabitants of it: and [there is] a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcasses;
of dead men lying in the streets, pierced and slain with the bright sword and glittering spear of the Medes and Chaldeans: and [there is] none end of [their] corpses;
the number of them could not be told; they lay so thick in all parts of the city, that there was no telling them: they stumble upon their corpses;
the Ninevites in fleeing, and endeavouring to make their escape, and the Medes and Chaldeans pursuing them.

Nahúm 3:3 In-Context

1 ¡Ay de la ciudad sedienta de sangre,repleta de mentira,insaciable en su rapiña,aferrada a la presa!
2 Se oye el chasquido de los látigos,el estrépito de las ruedas,el galopar de los caballos,el chirrido de los carros,
3 la carga de la caballería,el fulgor de las espadas,el centellear de las lanzas,la multitud de muertos,los cuerpos amontonados,los cadáveres por doquier,en los que todos tropiezan.
4 ¡Y todo por las muchas prostitucionesde esa ramera de encantos zalameros,de esa maestra de la seducción!Engañó a los pueblos con sus fornicaciones,y a los clanes con sus embrujos.
5 «¡Aquí estoy contra ti!—afirma el SEÑORTodopoderoso—.Te levantaré la falda hasta la cara,para que las naciones vean tu desnudez,y los reinos descubran tus vergüenzas.
