Nahum 1:6
Who can stand against his fury?Who can face his blazing anger?His wrath is poured out like fire,and the rocks are torn apart.
Who can stand against his fury?Who can face his blazing anger?His wrath is poured out like fire,and the rocks are torn apart.
Before him, the mountains shake and the hills melt; the earth trembles and all the people shake.
He rebukes the sea and it dries up; he drains rivers of their water. Bashan and Carmel wither; The blossoms of Lebanon fade.
The Lord is slow to anger, despite his immense power. He does not overlook evil.In storm and whirlwind is his path;clouds are the dust of his feet.
Theophany and Judgment The Lord is a jealous and vengeful God, the Lord enacts vengeance in his anger.
My Lord God is my fortress; he makes my feet as swift as hinds; he steadies my steps on the heights. For the choirmaster: with stringed instruments.
Even though the fig trees do not blossom, nor do grapes appear on the vines; even if the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food; even if the flock is lost from the fold and the herd is gone from the stalls;
I heard, and my heart raced; my lips trembled at the sound. Decay seeped into my bones; my legs wobbled beneath me. Still, I wait confidently for the day of trouble, when we face the people coming against us.
