Nahum 1:2-7
New King James Version
God’s Wrath on His Enemies
2 God is (A)jealous, and the Lord avenges;
The Lord avenges and is furious.
The Lord will take vengeance on His adversaries,
And He reserves wrath for His enemies;
3 The Lord is (B)slow to anger and (C)great in power,
And will not at all acquit the wicked.
(D)The Lord has His way
In the whirlwind and in the storm,
And the clouds are the dust of His feet.
4 (E)He rebukes the sea and makes it dry,
And dries up all the rivers.
(F)Bashan and Carmel wither,
And the flower of Lebanon wilts.
5 The mountains quake before Him,
The hills melt,
And the earth [a]heaves at His presence,
Yes, the world and all who dwell in it.
6 Who can stand before His indignation?
And (G)who can endure the fierceness of His anger?
His fury is poured out like fire,
And the rocks are thrown down by Him.

And laid the foundations of the earth;
You have feared continually every day
Because of the fury of the oppressor,
When he has prepared to destroy.
(F)And where is the fury of the oppressor?

Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.
12 I will also meditate on all Your work,

Who is so great a God as our God?

You have declared Your strength among the peoples.
15 You have with Your arm redeemed Your people,
The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

The waters saw You, they were (B)afraid;
The depths also trembled.
17 The clouds poured out water;
The skies sent out a sound;
Your arrows also flashed about.
18 The voice of Your thunder was in the whirlwind;
The lightnings lit up the world;
The earth trembled and shook.
19 Your way was in the sea,
Your path in the great waters,
And Your footsteps were not known.
20 You led Your people like a flock
By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
