Nahum 1:8-14
8But with an 1overflowingH5674 floodH7858 He will makeH6213 a completeH3617 endH3617 of 2its siteH4725, And will pursueH7291 His enemiesH340 into 3darknessH2822.
9WhateverH4100 you 4deviseH2803 againstH413 the LordH3068, He will makeH6213 a 5completeH3617 endH3617 of it. DistressH6869 will not riseH6965 upH6965 twiceH6471.10LikeH5704 tangledH5440 6thornsH5518, And like those who are 7drunkenH5433 with their drinkH5435, They are 8consumedH398 Like stubbleH7179 completelyH4392 driedH3002 upH3002.11From you has goneH3318 outH3318 One who 9plottedH2803 evilH7463 againstH5921 the LordH3068, A 1011wickedH1100 counselorH3289. 12ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “ThoughH518 they are at fullH8003 strength and soH3651 they are manyH7227, SoH3651 also they will be 12cutH1494 offH1494 and passH5674 awayH5674. Though I have afflictedH6031 you, I will afflictH6031 you 13noH3808 longerH5750.13So nowH6258, I will 14breakH7665 his yokeH4132 from upon you, And I will tearH5423 your shacklesH4147 toH5423 piecesH5423.”
14The LordH3068 has issuedH6680 aH6680 commandH6680 concerningH5921 15you: “16Your nameH8034 will 17noH3808 longerH5750 be perpetuatedH2232. I will eliminateH3772 the 18carvedH6459 imageH6459 and the castH4541 metalH4541 imageH4541 From the houseH1004 of your godsH430. I will prepareH7760 your 19graveH6913, For you areH7043 contemptibleH7043.”
