Nahum 1:3-8

Lexham English Bible

³ Yahweh is slow to anger but great in power;
    he will certainly not allow the guilty to go unpunished.
He marches^[a] in storm wind and in gale;
    storm clouds are the dust of his feet.
⁴ He rebukes the sea and he dries up the rivers;
    he makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel wither;^[b]
    the blossom of Lebanon languishes.
⁵ Mountains quake before him;
    the hills shake apart.^[c]
The earth heaves before him—
    the world and all her inhabitants.
⁶ His indignation—who can stand before it?
    Who can endure his fierce anger?^[d]
His wrath is poured out like fire;
    rocks are shattered before^[e] him.
⁷ Yahweh is good—a refuge in the day of distress;
    he knows those who take refuge in him.
⁸ But with a rushing torrent he will bring Nineveh to an end;
    he will chase his enemies into darkness.
