1 The pronouncement concerning Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
2 The LORD is a jealous and avenging God;
the LORD takes vengeance
and is fierce in[fn] wrath.
The LORD takes vengeance against his foes;
he is furious with his enemies.
3 The LORD is slow to anger but great in power;
the LORD will never leave the guilty unpunished.
His path is in the whirlwind and storm,
and clouds are the dust beneath his feet.
4 He rebukes the sea and dries it up,
and he makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel wither;
even the flower of Lebanon withers.
5 The mountains quake before him,
and the hills melt;
the earth trembles[fn][fn] at his presence —
the world and all who live in it.
6 Who can withstand his indignation?
Who can endure his burning anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire;
even rocks are shattered before him.
7 The LORD is good,
a stronghold in a day of distress;
he cares for those who take refuge in him.
8 But he will completely destroy Nineveh[fn]
with an overwhelming flood,
and he will chase his enemies into darkness.
9 Whatever you[fn] plot against the LORD,
he will bring it to complete destruction;
oppression will not rise up a second time.
10 For they will be consumed
like entangled thorns,
like the drink of a drunkard
and like straw that is fully dry.[fn]
11 One has gone out from you,[fn]
who plots evil against the LORD,
and is a wicked counselor.
12 This is what the LORD says:
Though they are strong[fn] and numerous,
they will still be mowed down,
and he[fn] will pass away.
Though I have punished you,[fn]
I will punish you no longer.
13 For I will now break off his yoke from you
and tear off your shackles.
14 The LORD has issued an order concerning you:
There will be no offspring
to carry on your name.[fn]
I will eliminate the carved idol and cast image
from the house of your gods;
I will prepare your grave,
for you are contemptible.
15 Look to the mountains —
the feet of the herald,
who proclaims peace.
Celebrate your festivals, Judah;
fulfill your vows.
For the wicked one will never again
march through you;
he will be entirely wiped out.
