Nahum 3:17


Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Your guards are like the swarming locust, and your scribes 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.


World English Bible (WEB)

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.


Strong's King James

Thy crowned{H4502} are as the locusts{H697}, and thy captains{H2951} as the great grasshoppers{H1462}, which camp{H2583}{(H8802)} in the hedges{H1448} in the cold{H7135} day{H3117}, but when the sun{H8121} ariseth{H2224}{(H8804)} they flee away{H5074}{(H8776)}, and their place{H4725} is not known{H3045}{(H8738)} where{H335} they are.


The F.O.G *

Your officials are like a swarming locust, Your generals are like hordes of grasshoppers, Encamping in the stone walls on a cold day, The sun rises, they flee, and their place where they were is unknown.


The F.O.G Message *


Young's Literal Translation

Thy crowned ones are as a locust, And thy princes as great grasshoppers, That encamp in hedges in a day of cold, The sun hath risen, and it doth flee away, And not known is its place where they are.
