- ગુજરાતી — નાહૂમ ૩:૧૭
- તારા રાજકુમારો તીડ જેવા છે અને તારા સેનાપતિઓ તીડના ટોળાં જેવા છે, તેઓ ઠંડીના દિવસોમાં વાડોમાં છાવણી કરે છે પણ સૂરજ ઊગતાં જ તેઓ ઊડી જાય છે અને ક્યાં ગયા તેની કોઈને ખબર પડતી નથી.
- हिन्दी — नहूम ३:१७
- तेरे मुकुटधारी लोग टिड्डियों के समान, और तेरे सेनापति टिड्डियों के दलों सरीखे ठहरेंगे जो जाड़े के दिन में बाड़ों पर टिकते हैं, परन्तु जब सूर्य दिखाई देता है तब भाग जाते हैं; और कोई नहीं जानता कि वे कहाँ गए।
