Nineveh Will Suffer the Same Fate as Thebes You are no more secure than Thebes– she was located on the banks of the Nile; the waters surrounded her, her rampart was the sea, the water was her wall.
Cush and Egypt had limitless strength; Put and the Libyans were among her allies.
Yet she went into captivity as an exile; even her infants were smashed to pieces at the head of every street. They cast lots for her nobility; all her dignitaries were bound with chains.
You too will act like drunkards; you will go into hiding; you too will seek refuge from the enemy.
The Assyrian Defenses Will Fail All your fortifications will be like fig trees with first-ripe fruit: If they are shaken, their figs will fall into the mouth of the eater!
Your warriors will be like women in your midst; the gates of your land will be wide open to your enemies; fire will consume the bars of your gates.
Draw yourselves water for a siege! Strengthen your fortifications! Trample the mud and tread the clay! Make mud bricks to strengthen your walls!
