And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?
All they that look upon thee - when thou hast been made "a gazingstock" (Nahum 3:6).
Shall flee from thee - as a thing horrible to look upon (cf. "standing afar off," Revelation 18:10).
Whence shall I seek comforters for thee? - (cf. Isaiah 51:19, which Nahum had before his mind.)
