Nahum 1:9-11
English Standard Version
9 What (A)do you plot against the Lord?
(B)He will make a complete end;
trouble will not rise up a second time.
10 For they are (C)like entangled thorns,
like drunkards as they drink;
(D)they are consumed like stubble fully dried.
11 From you came one
(E)who plotted evil against the Lord,
a worthless counselor.
Nahum 1:9-11
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 Whatever you[a] plot against the Lord,
He will bring it to complete destruction;(A)
oppression will not rise up a second time.
10 For they will be consumed
like entangled thorns,(B)
like the drink of a drunkard
and like straw that is fully dry.[b]
11 One has gone out from you,[c]
who plots evil against Yahweh,
and is a wicked counselor.
