Nahum 1
1. The burden <4853> of Nineveh <5210>. The book <5612> of the
vision <2377> of Nahum <5151> the Elkoshite <0512>.
2. God <0410> [is] jealous <7072>, and the LORD <3068>
revengeth <5358>; the LORD <3068> revengeth <5358>, and [is]
furious; the LORD <3068> will take vengeance <5358> on his
adversaries <6862>, and he reserveth <5201> [wrath] for his
enemies <0341>.
3 The LORD <3068> [is] slow <0750> to anger <0639>, and great
<1431> in power <3581>, and will not at all acquit <5352> [the
wicked <7563>]: the LORD <3068> hath his way <1870> in the
whirlwind <5492> and in the storm <8183>, and the clouds <6051>
[are] the dust <80> of his feet <7272>.
4 He rebuketh <1605> the sea <3220>, and maketh it dry <3001>,
and drieth <3001> up all <3605> the rivers <5104>: Bashan <1316>
languisheth <0535>, and Carmel <3760>, and the flower <6525> of
Lebanon <3844> languisheth <0535>.
5 The mountains <2022> quake <7493> at him, and the hills
<1389> melt <4127>, and the earth <0776> is burned <5375> at his
presence <6440>, yea, the world <8398>, and all <3605> that
dwell <3427> therein.
6 Who <4310> can stand <5975> before <6440> his indignation
<2195>? and who <4310> can abide <6965> in the fierceness <2740>
of his anger <0639>? his fury <2534> is poured <5413> out like
fire <0784>, and the rocks <6697> are thrown <5422> down <5422>
by him.
7 The LORD <3068> [is] good <2896>, a strong <4581> hold <4581>
in the day <3117> of trouble <6869>; and he knoweth <3045> them
that trust <2620> in him.
8 But with an overrunning <5674> flood <7858> he will make
<6213> an utter <3617> end <3615> of the place <4725> thereof,
and darkness <2822> shall pursue <7291> his enemies <0341>.
9. What <4100> do ye imagine <2803> against <0413> the LORD
<3068>? he will make <6213> an utter <3617> end <3615>:
affliction <6869> shall not rise <6965> up the second time
<6471>.
10 For while <5704> [they be] folden <5440> together [as]
thorns <5518>, and while they are drunken <5435> [as] drunkards
<5435>, they shall be devoured <0398> as stubble <7179> fully
<4390> dry <3002>.
11 There is [one] come <3318> out of thee, that imagineth
<2803> evil <7451> against <5921> the LORD <3068>, a wicked
<1100> counsellor <3289>.
12 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; Though <0518>
[they be] quiet <8003>, and likewise <3651> many <7227>, yet
thus <3651> shall they be cut <1494> down, when <3588> he shall
pass <5674> through. Though I have afflicted <6031> thee, I will
afflict <6031> thee no <3808> more <5750>.
13 For now <6258> will I break <7665> his yoke <4132> from off
<5921> thee, and will burst <5423> thy bonds <4147> in sunder.
14 And the LORD <3068> hath given a commandment <6680>
concerning <5921> thee, [that] no <3808> more <5750> of thy name
<8034> be sown <2232>: out of the house <1004> of thy gods
<0430> will I cut <3772> off the graven <6459> image and the
molten <4541> image: I will make <7760> thy grave <6913>; for
thou art vile <7043>.
15 Behold <2209> upon the mountains <2022> the feet <7272> of
him that bringeth <1319> good <1319> tidings <1319>, that
publisheth <8085> peace <7965>! O Judah <3063>, keep <2287> thy
solemn <2282> feasts <2282>, perform <7999> thy vows <5088>: for
the wicked <1100> shall no <3808> more pass <5674> through thee;
he is utterly <3605> cut <3772> off.
Nahum 2
1. He that dasheth <6327> in pieces is come <5927> up before
<5921> thy face <6440>: keep <5341> the munition <4694>, watch
<6822> the way <1870>, make [thy] loins <4975> strong <2388>,
fortify <0553> [thy] power <3581> mightily <3966>.
2 For the LORD <3068> hath turned <7725> away the excellency
<1347> of Jacob <3290>, as the excellency <1347> of Israel
<3478>: for the emptiers <1238> have emptied <1238> them out,
and marred <7843> their vine <2156> branches <2156>.
3 The shield <4043> of his mighty <1368> men is made red <0119>,
the valiant <2428> men <0582> [are] in scarlet <8529>: the
chariots <7393> [shall be] with flaming <0784> torches <6393> in
the day <3117> of his preparation <3559>, and the fir <1265>
trees shall be terribly shaken <7477>.
4 The chariots <7393> shall rage <1984> in the streets <2351>,
they shall justle <8264> one against another <8264> in the broad
<7339> ways: they shall seem <4758> like torches <3940>, they
shall run <7323> like the lightnings <1300>.
5 He shall recount <2142> his worthies <0117>: they shall
stumble <3782> in their walk <1979>; they shall make haste
<4116> to the wall <2346> thereof, and the defence <5526> shall
be prepared <3559>.
6 The gates <8179> of the rivers <5104> shall be opened <6605>,
and the palace <1964> shall be dissolved <4127>.
7 And Huzzab <5324> shall be led away <1540> captive <1540>,
she shall be brought <5927> up, and her maids <0519> shall lead
<5090> [her] as with the voice <6963> of doves <3123>, tabering
<8608> upon their breasts <3824>.
8 But Nineveh <5210> [is] of old <3117> like a pool <1295> of
water <4325>: yet they shall flee <5127> away. Stand <5975>,
stand <5975>, [shall they cry]; but none <0369> shall look
<6437> back <6437>.
9 Take <0962> ye the spoil <0962> of silver <3701>, take <0962>
the spoil <7997> of gold <2091>: for [there is] none <0369> end
<7097> of the store <8498> [and] glory <3519> out of all <3605>
the pleasant <2532> furniture <3627>.
10 She is empty <0950>, and void <4003>, and waste <1110>: and
the heart <3820> melteth <4549>, and the knees <1290> smite
<6375> together, and much <2479> pain <2479> [is] in all <3605>
loins <4975>, and the faces <6440> of them all <3605> gather
<6908> blackness <6289>.
11. Where <0346> [is] the dwelling <4583> of the lions <0738>,
and the feedingplace <7462> of the young <3715> lions <3715>,
where the lion <0739>, [even] the old lion <3833>, walked <1980>,
[and] the lion's <0738> whelp <1482>, and none <0369> made
[them] afraid <2729>?
12 The lion <0738> did tear <2963> in pieces enough <1767> for
his whelps <1484>, and strangled <2614> for his lionesses <3833>,
and filled <4390> his holes <2356> with prey <2964>, and his
dens <4585> with ravin <2966>.
13 Behold <2205>, I [am] against <0413> thee, saith <5002> the
LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, and I will burn <1197> her chariots
<7393> in the smoke <6227>, and the sword <2719> shall devour
<0398> thy young <3715> lions <3715>: and I will cut <3772> off
thy prey <2964> from the earth <0776>, and the voice <6963> of
thy messengers <4397> shall no <3808> more <5750> be heard
<8085>.
Nahum 3
1. Woe <1945> to the bloody <1818> city <5892>! it [is] all
<3605> full <4392> of lies <3585> [and] robbery <6503>; the prey
<2964> departeth <4185> not;
2 The noise <6963> of a whip <7752>, and the noise <6963> of
the rattling <7494> of the wheels <0212>, and of the pransing
<1725> horses <5483>, and of the jumping <7540> chariots <4818>.
