Nahum 2:8
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
But Nineveh is of old (note: Or, from the days that she hath been) like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back (note: Or, cause to turn).
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.
