Nahum 3:17

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

Your guards are like the locusts, and your officials like the swarms of locusts, which settle on the walls on a cold day, but when the sun appears, they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
Your guards (note: Or princes) are like the swarming locust, and your scribes (note: Or marshals) like clouds of locusts that settle on the walls on a cold day. When the sun rises, they fly away, and no one knows where.
