Nahum 1:3-12

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Nahum 1:3-12

3The LORD is slow to anger
and great in power;
the LORD will by no means
leave the guilty unpunished.
His path is in the whirlwind and storm,
and clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
4He rebukes the sea and dries it up;
He makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel wither,
and the flower of Lebanon wilts.
5The mountains quake before Him,
and the hills melt away;
the earth trembles at His presence —
the world and all its dwellers.
6Who can withstand His indignation?
Who can endure His burning anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire;
even rocks are shattered before Him.
7The LORD is good,
a stronghold in the day of distress;
He cares for those who trust in Him.
8But with an overwhelming flood
He will make an end of Nineveh
and pursue His enemies into darkness.
9Whatever you plot against the LORD,
He will bring to an end.
Affliction will not rise up
a second time.
10For they will be entangled as with thorns
and consumed like the drink of a drunkard —
like stubble that is fully dry.
11From you, O Nineveh, comes forth
a plotter of evil against the LORD,
a counselor of wickedness.
12This is what the LORD says:
“Though they are allied and numerous,
yet they will be cut down and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you, O Judah,
I will afflict you no longer.
