Nahum 1:3-8
New American Standard Bible
3 The Lord is (A)slow to anger and great in power,
And the Lord will by no means leave the guilty unpunished.
In the (B)gale and the storm is His way,
And (C)clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
4 He (D)rebukes the sea and dries it up;
He dries up all the rivers.
(E)Bashan and Carmel wither,
The blossoms of Lebanon wither.
5 Mountains (F)quake because of Him,
And the hills (G)come apart;
Indeed the earth is (H)upheaved by His presence,
The (I)world and all the inhabitants in it.
6 (J)Who can stand before His indignation?
Who can endure the (K)burning of His anger?
His (L)wrath gushes forth like fire,
And the (M)rocks are broken up by Him.
7 The Lord is (N)good,
A stronghold in the day of trouble,
And (O)He knows those who take refuge in Him.
8 But with an (P)overflowing flood
He will make a complete end of [a]its site,
And will pursue His enemies into (Q)darkness.

3 The Lord is (A)slow to anger and great in power,
And the Lord will by no means leave the guilty unpunished.
In (B)whirlwind and storm is His way,
And (C)clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
4 He (D)rebukes the sea and makes it dry;
He dries up all the rivers.
(E)Bashan and Carmel wither;
The blossoms of Lebanon wither.
5 Mountains (F)quake because of Him
And the hills (G)dissolve;
Indeed the earth is (H)upheaved by His presence,
The (I)world and all the inhabitants in it.
6 (J)Who can stand before His indignation?
Who can endure the (K)burning of His anger?
His (L)wrath is poured out like fire
And the (M)rocks are broken up by Him.

New International Version
3 The Lord is slow to anger(A) but great in power;
the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished.(B)
His way is in the whirlwind(C) and the storm,(D)
and clouds(E) are the dust of his feet.
4 He rebukes(F) the sea and dries it up;(G)
he makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel(H) wither
and the blossoms of Lebanon fade.
5 The mountains quake(I) before him
and the hills melt away.(J)
The earth trembles(K) at his presence,
the world and all who live in it.(L)
6 Who can withstand(M) his indignation?
Who can endure(N) his fierce anger?(O)
His wrath is poured out like fire;(P)
the rocks are shattered(Q) before him.
