Nahum 2:5

בַּֽחוּצוֹת֙ יִתְהוֹלְל֣וּ הָרֶ֔כֶב יִֽשְׁתַּקְשְׁק֖וּן בָּרְחֹב֑וֹת מַרְאֵיהֶן֙ כַּלַּפִּידִ֔ם כַּבְּרָקִ֖ים יְרוֹצֵֽצוּ׃
baḥvṣvot yithvollv harekeb yishtaqshqvn barḥobvot marʾeyhen kalapiydim kabraqiym yrvoṣeṣv
King James Version (KJV)

He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared. {worthies: or, gallants} {defence: Heb. covering, or, coverer}

Modern English

He summons his picked troops. They stumble on their way. They dash to its wall, and the protective shield is put in place.
