Nahum 2 describes Nineveh's fall owing to its persistent cruelty and oppression. "An attacker advances against you Nineveh... the metal on the chariots flashes... as they storm through the streets... he summons his picked troops yet they stumble on their way... it is decreed that the city be exiled and carried away... plunder the silver and gold!... she is pillages, plundered and stripped... I am against you declares the Lord Almighty! I will burn up your chariots in smoke... the voices of your messengers will no longer be heard".
