Nahum 1:12-15
12Thus says the Lord, “Though they are at full strength and likewise many, Even so, they will be 1cut off and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you 2no longer.13So now, I will 3break his yoke bar from upon you, And I will tear off your shackles.”
14The Lord has issued a command concerning 4you: “5Your name will 6no longer be perpetuated. I will cut off 78idol and 9image From the house of your gods. I will prepare your 10grave, For you are contemptible.”
1511Behold, 12on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news, Who announces peace! 13Celebrate your feasts, O Judah; Pay your vows. For 14never again will the 15wicked one pass through you; He is 16cut off completely.
