6I will make you completely disgusting and full of shame, and will put you up to be looked at by all.
7And it will come about that all who see you will go in flight from you and say, Nineveh is made waste: who will be weeping for her? where am I to get comforters for her?
8Are you better than No-amon, seated on the Nile streams, with waters all round her; whose wall was the sea and her earthwork the waters?
9Ethiopia was her strength and Egyptians without number; Put and Lubim were her helpers.
10But even she has been taken away, she has gone away as a prisoner: even her young children are smashed to bits at the top of all the streets: the fate of her honoured men is put to the decision of chance, and all her great men are put in chains.
11And you will be overcome with wine, you will become feeble; you will be looking for a safe place from those who are fighting against you.
12All your walled places will be like fig-trees and your people like the first figs, falling at a shake into the mouth which is open for them.
