Nahum 1



<< Nahum 1 >>
GOD'S WORD ® Translation
 

11From you, Nineveh, a person who plans evil against the LORD sets out. His advice is wicked.

12This is what the LORD says: Though the people of Nineveh are physically fit and many in number, they will be cut down and die. Though I have humbled you, Judah, I will not humble you again.

13But now I will break Nineveh's yoke off of you and tear its chains from you.

14The LORD has given this command about you, Nineveh: You will no longer have descendants to carry on your name. I will remove the wooden and metal idols from the temple of your gods. I will prepare your grave because you are worthless.

15There on the mountains are the feet of a messenger who announces the good news: "All is well!" Celebrate your festivals, Judah! Keep your vows! This wickedness will never pass your way again. It will be completely removed.
