Nahum 1:3-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

    He marches out in the whirlwind and in the storm.
    Storm clouds are like dust stirred up by his feet.
⁴ He rebukes the sea and makes it dry up.
    He makes all the rivers run dry.
    Bashan and Carmel are completely withered.
    The buds of Lebanon are completely withered.
⁵ The mountains quake in front of him.
    The hills melt away.
    The earth in front of him rises up,
    the whole world and all who live in it.
⁶ Who can withstand his anger?
    Who can resist his fury?
    His rage is poured out like fire,
    and the rocks are torn down by him.

⁷ The Lord is good.
    He is a place of safety in the day of distress.
    He knows those who seek safety in him,
⁸ but he will bring this place to a complete end by an overwhelming flood.
    He will drive his enemies into darkness.
