Nahum 2:1

[The watchmen on the wall in Nineveh cry out:]
Destroyers (divisive people, those who crush and scatter) have come against you!
[Literally: before or in front of your face.]
Man the ramparts,
guard the roads,
fasten your belt (remake your lands with strength) [prepare for battle, see also Ezek. 29:7; 1 Pet. 1:13]
and gather great strength (as much as you can).
