10Even she went into captivity and was exiled. 

Even her little children were smashed to death at every street corner. 

Soldiers tossed dice for her important men, 

and all her best men were bound in chains. 

11Even you, Nineveh, will stagger like a drunk. 

You will disappear. 

Even you will look for a fortress ⸤to escape⸥ from the enemy.

Yet she became an exile;

she went into captivity;

her infants were dashed in pieces

at the head of every street;

and all her great men were bound in chains.

You also will be drunken;

you will go into hiding;

you will seek a refuge from the enemy.

and seek refuge from the enemy.

Thou also shalt seek strength because of the enemy.
