וְנִינְוֵ֥ה כִבְרֵֽכַת־מַ֖יִם מִ֣ימֵי הִ֑יא וְהֵ֣מָּה נָסִ֔ים עִמְד֥וּ עֲמֹ֖דוּ וְאֵ֥ין מַפְנֶֽה׃
Saquead plata, saquead oro: no hay fin de las riquezas y suntuosidad de todo ajuar de codicia.
Rashi on Nahum
And Nineveh is like a pool of water - it is since days of yore—Since the day it was founded, it has been sitting tranquilly with no one disturbing it, like a pool of gathered water that does not move from its place.
Rashi on Nahum
and they—Now, out of their stress, they have learned to flee and are fleeing.
Rashi on Nahum
Halt! Halt!—They say to them, but no one turns his heart to listen and halt.
