Nahum 1:9-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 Why do you plot against the Lord?
He will make an end;
no adversary will rise up twice.(A)
10 Like thorns they are entangled;
like drunkards they are drunk;
they are consumed like dry straw.(B)
11 From you one has gone out
who plots evil against the Lord,
one who counsels wickedness.(C)
Nahum 1:9-11
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.
11 Who is this wicked counselor of yours
who plots evil against the Lord?
