Nahum 1:8
Compare all
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. 
10 For while tangled alike thorns,
bAnd while drunken like drunkards,
cThey shall be devoured like stubble fully dried. 
11 From you comes forth one
Who plots evil a1gainst the Lord,
A wicked counselor.

Nahum 1:8

An over - running flood - His judgments like a mighty flood that overflows all banks, shall swallow up Assyria. Thereof - Of Nineveh, that is Nineveh itself. Darkness - Troubles, and desolating afflictions.
