1 The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.

2 God is jealous, and the LORD avenges; the LORD avenges and is furious.; the LORD will take vengeance on His adversaries, and He reserves wrath for His enemies;

3 The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked. The LORD has His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet.

4 He rebukes the sea, makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers. Bashan languishes, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languishes.

5 The mountains quake because of Him, the hills melt, and the earth is burned at His presence, yes, the world and all who dwell in it.

6 Who can stand before His indignation? And who can abide in the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by Him.

7 The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust in Him.

8 But with an overflowing flood He will make an utter end of its place, and darkness will pursue His enemies.

9 What do you imagine against the Lord? He will make an utter end. Affliction will not rise up a second time.

10 For while they be folded together like thorns, and while they are drunk like drunkards, they shall be devoured like fully dried stubble.

11 There is one who came out of you, who imagines evil against the LORD, a wicked counselor.

12 Thus says the LORD: “Though they are safe, and likewise many, yet in this manner they will be cut down when he passes through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more;

13 For now I will break off his yoke from off you, and burst your bonds apart.”

14 The Lord has given a commandment concerning you, that: “Your name shall be no longer sown. Out of the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the molded image. I will dig your grave, because you are vile.”

15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him who brings good tidings, who proclaims peace! O Judah, keep your appointed feasts, perform your vows. Because, the wicked shall no longer pass through you; he is utterly cut off.
