Nahum 1:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Nahum 1:8

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.

12 Thus says the Lord:
“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;
