Nahum 1:9-10
New Living Translation

9 Why are you scheming against the Lord?
    He will destroy you with one blow;
    he won’t need to strike twice!
10 His enemies, tangled like thornbushes
    and staggering like drunks,
    will be burned up like dry stubble in a field.

Common English Bible

A challenge to God’s enemies

9 What are you plotting against the Lord?
        He is one who can annihilate!
        Distress will not arise twice.
10 They are tangled up like thorns,
        like drunkards in their cups.
    They are consumed like stubble
        that is entirely dried up.
