bHe will make an utter end of it.
Affliction will not rise up a second time.
bAnd while drunken like drunkards,
cThey shall be devoured like stubble fully dried.
“Though they are1 safe, and likewise many,
Yet in this manner they will be acut down
When he passes through.
Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you no more;
1“Your name shall be perpetuated no longer.
Out of the house of your gods
I will cut off the carved image and the molded image.
I will dig your agrave,
For you are bvile.”
The afeet of him who brings good tidings,
Who proclaims peace!
O Judah, keep your appointed feasts,
Perform your vows.
For the1 wicked one shall no more pass through you;
He is butterly cut off.

Nahum 1:11
There is one come out of thee - that is, Nineveh, "that imagineth" deviseth, , "evil, Lord, Sennacherib, against the the rod of God' s anger" Isaiah 10:5-7, yet who "meant not so," as God meant. "And this was his counsel," as is every counsel of Satan, "that they could not resist him, and so should withdraw themselves from the land of God, "into a land like their own" Isaiah 36:16-17, but whose joy and sweetness, its vines and its fig-trees, should not be from God, but from the Assyrian, i. e., from Satan.
