Nahum 1:2-4
Contemporary English Version
The Fierce Anger of the Lord
2 The Lord God demands loyalty.
In his anger, he takes revenge
on his enemies.
3 The Lord is powerful,
yet patient;
he makes sure that the guilty
are always punished.
He can be seen in storms
and in whirlwinds;
clouds are the dust from his feet.
4 At the Lord's command,
oceans and rivers dry up.
Bashan, Mount Carmel,
and Lebanon[a] wither,
and their flowers fade.
Footnotes
- 1.4 Bashan, Mount Carmel, and Lebanon: Three regions noted for their trees and flowers.
