Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?

The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.

idaM tyat paatram indrapaanam indrasya priyam amRtam apaayi

Who is this that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
