King James
VersionMicah 7. The Book
of Nahum | Chapter 1
| 1 |
The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the
Elkoshite. | 2 |
God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and is
furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he
reserveth wrath for his enemies. | 3 |
The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all
acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the
storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet. |
4 |
He 1rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the
rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon
languisheth.

Matt 14:32
| 5
| The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is
burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein. |
6 |
Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of
his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down
by him. | 7 |
The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he
knoweth them that trust in him. | 8 |
But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place
thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies. |
9 | What do ye imagine against the LORD? he
will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second
time. |
10 |
For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as
drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry. | 11 |
There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the LORD,
a wicked counsellor. | 12 |
Thus saith the LORD; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet
thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I
have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more. |
13 |
For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in
sunder. |
14 | And
the LORD hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of
thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the
graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou
art vile. |
15 | Behold upon the mountains the feet of
him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep
thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more
pass through thee; he is utterly cut off. |
Nahum 2
