Nahum 2:11Wycliffe's Bible with Modern SpellingWhere is the dwelling of lions, and [the] pastures of whelps of lions? To which city the lion went, that the whelp of the lion should enter thither, and there is not that shall make afeared. See the chapter |
For why the Lord saith these things to me, If a lion roareth, and a whelp of a lion on his prey, when the multitude of shepherds cometh against him, he shall not dread of the voice of them, and he shall not dread of the multitude of them; so the Lord of hosts shall come down, for to fight on the mountain [or mount] of Zion, and on the little hill thereof.
Lo! as a lion he shall ascend [or goeth up] from the pride of Jordan to the strong fairness, for I shall make him to run suddenly to it; and who shall be the chosen man whom I shall set [or put] before him? For who is like me? and who shall suffer me? and who is this shepherd, that shall against-stand my cheer?
Thou, son of man, take wailing on Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and thou shalt say to him, Thou were made like to a lion of heathen men, and to a dragon which is in the sea. And thou winnowest with horn in thy floods, and thou disturbedest [or troublest] waters with thy feet, and defouledest the floods of those [or them].
