尼尼微啊！那分散邦国的必上来攻击你，你要固守堡垒，严防要道，束紧你的腰，大大增强你的力量。（本节在《马索拉文本》为2:2）

就与众领袖和众勇士商议，要把城外各道水泉堵塞，他们都赞同。于是有一大班人集合起来，堵塞了一切泉源和流通那地的溪流，他们说：“为什么要让亚述王得着充沛的水源呢？”

“要准备好大小的盾牌，踏上战场。要装备马匹，骑上战马；站好岗位，戴上头盔；磨快枪矛，穿上铁甲。

你们要在列国中宣告以下这话：“你们要预备争战，要激动勇士。让所有的战士都近前来，让他们都上去攻击。要把犁头打成刀剑，把镰刀打成矛枪；软弱的要说：‘我是勇士。’四围的列国啊！你们快来帮助，在那里一同聚集。耶和华啊！求你叫你的勇士下来吧。

马匹啊，上前吧！战车啊，狂奔吧！勇士啊，就是紧握盾牌的古实人和弗人，以及拉弓的吕底亚人哪，上阵吧！

你们看见大卫的缺口很多，就储存下池的水。你们又数点耶路撒冷的房屋，把房屋拆掉，用来坚固城墙。你们又在两道城墙之间造一个水池，用来盛载旧池的水，你们却不仰望作这事的主，也不顾念远古以来计划这事的神。

列国之民啊！你们尽管作恶，但你们终必毁灭！所有在远处的人民啊，要留心听！你们尽管束腰吧，你们终必毁灭！你们尽管束腰吧，你们终必毁灭！

我挖井和喝水；我用我的脚掌踏干埃及的河流。’

希西家曾对你们说：耶和华我们的神必拯救我们脱离亚述王的手。他不是迷惑你们，使你们因饥渴而死吗？
