Nah 3:9 | CPDV | STEP | Ethiopia and Egypt were its strength, and there is no limit. Africa and Northern Africa have been your helpers.

‏ Nahum 3:9

9 Ethiopia and Egypt were its strength, and there is no limit. Africa and Northern Africa have been your helpers. ^{▼▼3:9The word ‘Libyes’ does not actually refer to the modern-day nation of Libya. During Biblical times, the word Libyes referred to Northern Africa in general and to the people who lived there. Therefore, the translation of ‘Libyes’ as ‘Northern Africa,’ rather than as Libya, is less literal and yet more accurate.(Conte)}
