Nahum 1:2-4

International Standard Version

² A jealous God, the Lord avenges.
    The Lord avenges;
The Lord is an angry husband.
The Lord takes vengeance on his enemies,
    reserving anger for his adversaries.
³ The Lord is slow to anger and powerful,
    and he will never let the guilty^[a] go unpunished.
The Lord’s path is in the windstorm and hurricane;
    thunderclouds are dust beneath his feet.
⁴ He rebukes the sea, and it evaporates;
    he dries up all the rivers.
Bashan and Carmel wither,
    while the flowers of Lebanon languish.
