Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets: and they cast lots for her honourable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.

Verse 10 is found in chapter 3 of Nahum. The comparison with Thebes shows that a powerful and protected city can fall. Its location, defenses, and alliances could not guarantee its permanence, and its example serves as a precedent for the announced fate of Nineveh.

Doch hat sie müssen vertrieben werden und gefangen wegziehen; und sind ihre Kinder auf allen Gassen zerschmettert worden, und um ihre Edlen warf man das Los, und alle ihre Gewaltigen wurden in Ketten und Fesseln gelegt.
También ella fue llevada en cautiverio: también sus chiquitos fueron estrellados en las encrucijadas de todas las calles; y sobre sus varones echaron suertes, y todos sus magnates fueron aprisionados con grillos.
Sin embargo, también ella marchó al destierro, llevada cautiva. También sus niños fueron estrellados en las esquinas de todas las calles. Echaron suertes sobre sus nobles y todos sus grandes fueron encadenados.
Et cependant elle est partie pour l'exil, elle s'en est allée captive; Ses enfants ont été écrasés au coin de toutes les rues; On a jeté le sort sur ses nobles, Et tous ses grands ont été chargés de chaînes.
E pure ella è stata trasportata, è andata in cattività; e pure i suoi piccoli fanciulli sono stati schiacciati in capo d’ogni strada, e si son tratte le sorti sopra i suoi personaggi onorati, e tutti i suoi grandi sono stati incatenati, e messi ne’ ceppi.
Todavia foi levada cativa para o desterro; também os seus filhos foram despedaçados nas entradas de todas as ruas, e sobre os seus nobres lançaram sortes, e todos os seus grandes foram presos com grilhões.
但它被流放,被人擄去, 它的嬰孩也被摔碎在各街頭; 人為它的貴族抽籤, 它的權貴都被鎖鏈鎖住。
