New American Standard Bible 1995
Nahum 1:7-11
7The Lord is 1good, A stronghold in the day of trouble, And 2He knows those who take refuge in Him.8But with an 3overflowing flood He will make a complete end of 4its site, And will pursue His enemies into 5darkness.
9Whatever you 6devise against the Lord, He will make a 7complete end of it. Distress will not rise up twice.10Like tangled 8thorns, And like those who are 9drunken with their drink, They are 10consumed As stubble completely withered.11From you has gone forth One who 11plotted evil against the Lord, A 1213wicked counselor.
