Parallel
Nahum 2:8
Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
and the foundation has been exposed; and she has gone up, and her maid-servants were led [away] as doves moaning in their hearts.
Nineveh has been like a pool of water throughout her days, but now it is draining away. “Stop! Stop!” they cry, but no one turns back.
