They are consumed
As stubble completely withered.

One who plotted evil against the LORD,
A [fn]wicked counselor.

“Though they are at full strength and likewise many,
Even so, they will be cut off and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you no longer.

And I will tear off your shackles.”

I will cut off [fn]idol and [fn]image
From the house of your gods.
I will prepare your grave,
For you are contemptible.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNah 1:15 - [fn]Behold, on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news,
Who announces peace!
Celebrate your feasts, O Judah;
Pay your vows.
For never again will the [fn]wicked one pass through you;
He is cut off completely.
