“But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.”
With an overflowing flood, the LORD will make a full end of Nineveh's place; darkness pursues His enemies, suggesting that divine judgment is not merely destructive but absolute and final. The flood imagery recalls the deluge of judgment and parallels the waters that destroyed the Egyptian army, connecting Nineveh's fate to the pattern of God's salvation-through-judgment throughout redemptive history. The relentless pursuit into darkness conveys the totality of judgment.
