Nahum 1:12-13
English Standard Version
12 Thus says the Lord,
“Though they are at full strength and many,
(A)they will be cut down and pass away.
(B)Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you no more.
13 And now (C)I will break his yoke from off you
and will burst your bonds apart.”
Nahum 1:12-13
International Standard Version
The Lord’s Rebuke to Assyria
12 This is what the Lord says:
“No matter how strong they are,[a]
and no matter how numerous,
they will surely be annihilated[b] and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,[c]
I will do so no more.
13 Now I will break off Assyria’s[d] yoke from you,
and tear apart your shackles.”
