Nahum 1:5
Compare all
3 The Lord is aslow to anger and bgreat in power,
And will not at all acquit the wicked.
cThe Lord has His way
In the whirlwind and in the storm,
And the clouds are the dust of His feet. 
4 aHe rebukes the sea and makes it dry,
And dries up all the rivers.
bBashan and Carmel wither,
And the flower of Lebanon wilts. 
5 The mountains quake before Him,
The hills melt,
And the earth1 heaves at His presence,
Yes, the world and all who dwell in it. 
6 Who can stand before His indignation?
And awho can endure the fierceness of His anger?
His fury is poured out like fire,
And the rocks are thrown down by Him. 
7 aThe Lord is good,
A stronghold in the day of trouble;
And bHe knows those who trust in Him. 
8 But with an overflowing flood
He will make an utter end of its place,
And darkness will pursue His enemies.
9 aWhat do you1 conspire against the Lord?
bHe will make an utter end of it.
Affliction will not rise up a second time.
