Nahum 3 is clear that Nineveh will experience the same violence it has thrust upon others. Thus the prophecy is a river that would flow and rush during Babylon’s rise to power.

How does that compare with what we see in Jonah?

“Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” . . .
When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil way, God relented of the disaster that he had said he would do to them, and he did not do it.
Jonah 3:4, 10 ESV
