Nahum 1:8-14

8But with an over-running floodH7858 he will makeH6213 a full end of her placeH4725, and will pursueH7291 his enemiesH341 into darknessH2822.

9What do ye devise against Jehovah? he will makeH6213 a full end; affliction shall not riseH6965 up the second timeH6471. 10For entangled like thorns, and drunken as with their drinkH5435, they are consumedH398 utterly as dryH3002 stubbleH7179. 11There is oneH4480 goneH3318 forthH3318 out of thee, that deviseth evilH7451 against Jehovah, that counselleth wickednessH7451. 12ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: Though they be in fullH8003 strength, and likewise manyH7227, even soH3651 shall they be cutH1494 down, and he shall passH5674 away. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflictH6031 thee no more. 13And nowH6258 will I breakH7665 his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.

14And Jehovah hath given commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy nameH8034 be sownH2232: out of the houseH1004 of thy godsH430 will I cutH3772 off the graven imageH6459 and the molten imageH6459; I will makeH7760 thy graveH6913; for thou art vile.
