Nahum 2:1-4

1Behold, upon the mountains are the feet of him bringing good news, proclaiming shalom. O Judah, celebrate your festivals! Fulfill your vows! For never again will Belial pass through you. He has been utterly cut off.

2A shatterer has come up against you. Guard the rampart! Watch the way! Chazak! Be very courageous!

3For Adonai turned aside Jacob’s pride like Israel’s pride— for spoilers emptied them out and ruined their vine branches.

4He makes the shield of warriors’ red— valiant men are clad in scarlet! the chariot burns with metal fire on the day of his preparation, The fir trees are shaken.
