Nineveh’s Complete Ruin
1aWoe to the bloody city, completely full of lies and pillage;
Her prey never departs.
2The anoise of the whip,
The noise of the rattling of the wheel,
Galloping horses
And 1bounding chariots!
3Horsemen charging,
Swords flashing, aspears gleaming,
bMany slain, a mass of corpses,
They stumble over 2the dead bodies!

Woe to the bloody city,
all full of lies and plunder—
no end to the prey!
The crack of the whip, and rumble of the wheel,
galloping horse and bounding chariot!
Horsemen charging,
flashing sword and glittering spear,
hosts of slain,
heaps of corpses,
dead bodies without end—
they stumble over the bodies!

Woe to the city of blood,
full of lies,
full of plunder,
never without victims!
The crack of whips,
the clatter of wheels,
galloping horses
and jolting chariots!
Charging cavalry,
flashing swords
and glittering spears!
Many casualties,
piles of dead,
bodies without number,
people stumbling over the corpses—

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Woe to the city of blood,
totally deceitful,
full of plunder,
never without prey.
The crack of the whip
and rumble of the wheel,
galloping horse
and jolting chariot!
Charging horseman,
flashing sword,
shining spear;
heaps of slain,
mounds of corpses,
dead bodies without end—
they stumble over their dead.

NLTNew Living Translation
What sorrow awaits Nineveh,
the city of murder and lies!
She is crammed with wealth
and is never without victims.
Hear the crack of whips,
the rumble of wheels!
Horses’ hooves pound,
and chariots clatter wildly.
See the flashing swords and glittering spears
as the charioteers charge past!
There are countless casualties,
heaps of bodies—
so many bodies that
people stumble over them.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
Woe to the city that has shed much blood!
She is a deceiver,
She is filled with plunder,
She has hoarded her spoils of war.
The crack of the whip!
The rumbling of the chariot wheel!
The galloping of the horse!
The racing of the chariot!
Chariots charge!
Swords flash!
Spears glitter!
Many corpses are piled high!
There is no end to the slain!
They stumble over their dead!

KJV 1900King James Version
Woe to the bloody city!
It is all full of lies and robbery;
The prey departeth not;
The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels,
And of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear:
And there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases;
And there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:
