Nahum 1:7 in context

Nahum 1:4–10

4

He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers. Bashan and Carmel languish. The flower of Lebanon languishes.

5

The mountains quake before him, and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, yes, the world, and all who dwell in it.

6

Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the fierceness of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken apart by him.

But with an overflowing flood, he will make a full end of her place, and will pursue his enemies into darkness.

What do you plot against the LORD? He will make a full end. Affliction won’t rise up the second time.

For entangled like thorns, and drunken as with their drink, they are consumed utterly like dry stubble.
