7 It is decreed that Nineveh

be exiled and carried away.

Her female slaves moan like doves

and beat on their breasts.

7 And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up,

And her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves,

Tabering upon their breasts.

7 Nineveh’s exile has been decreed,

and all the servant girls mourn its capture.

They moan like doves

and beat their breasts in sorrow.

7 It is decreed:

She shall be led away captive,

She shall be brought up;

And her maidservants shall lead her as with the voice of doves,

Beating their breasts.

7 It has been announced that the people of Nineveh

will be captured and carried away.

The slave girls moan like doves

and beat their breasts, because they are sad.

7 And it is decreed: she is uncovered, she is carried away; and her handmaids moan as with the voice of doves, beating upon their breasts.

7 And it is decreed: she shall be uncovered, she shall be led away, and her maids shall moan as with the voice of doves, drumming upon their breasts.

7 The Lord has determined: 

“It will be stripped. 

It will be carried away. 

Its young women will be mourning like doves 

as they beat their breasts.” 

7 Beauty is stripped,

she is carried away;

her ladies-in-waiting moan

like the sound of doves,

and beat their breasts.

7 It is decreed that the city be exiled,

its slave women led away,

moaning like doves

and beating their breasts.

7 Her goddess is taken out and taken into exile;

her maidservants moan like doves;

they beat on their breasts.

7 The attackers order that the city’s people

be taken away as prisoners.

The female slaves cry like sad doves.

They beat their chests.

7 It is fixed:

She is stripped, she is carried away,

And her handmaids are moaning like the sound of doves,

Beating on their breasts.
