Cities in Judgment

Speaker or Performer: Pastor Grover ClevelandScripture Passage(s): Nahum 3:1-7Date of Delivery: July 14, 20241 Woe to the bloody city!It is all full of lies and robbery.Its victim never departs.2 The noise of a whipAnd the noise of rattling wheels,Of galloping horses,Of clattering chariots!3 Horsemen charge with bright sword and glittering spear.There is a multitude of slain,A great number of bodies,Countless corpses—They stumble over the corpses—4 Because of the multitude of harlotries of the seductive harlot,The mistress of sorceries,Who sells nations through her harlotries,And families through her sorceries.5 “Behold, I am against you,” says the Lord of hosts;“I will lift your skirts over your face,I will show the nations your nakedness,And the kingdoms your shame.6 I will cast abominable filth upon you,Make you vile,And make you a spectacle.7 It shall come to pass that all who look upon youWill flee from you, and say,‘Nineveh is laid waste!Who will bemoan her?’Where shall I seek comforters for you?”
