Chapter 1
Nahu RNKJV 1:1  The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
Nahu RNKJV 1:2  El is jealous, and יהוה revengeth; יהוה revengeth, and is furious; יהוה will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.
Nahu RNKJV 1:3  יהוה is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: יהוה hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
Nahu RNKJV 1:4  He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
Nahu RNKJV 1:5  The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
Nahu RNKJV 1:6  Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.
Nahu RNKJV 1:7  יהוה is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.
Nahu RNKJV 1:8  But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
Nahu RNKJV 1:9  What do ye imagine against יהוה? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
Nahu RNKJV 1:10  For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
Nahu RNKJV 1:11  There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against יהוה, a wicked counseller.
Nahu RNKJV 1:12  Thus saith יהוה: Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
Nahu RNKJV 1:13  For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.
Nahu RNKJV 1:14  And יהוה hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy elohim will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile.
Nahu RNKJV 1:15  Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
