Nahum: Chapter 1

¹The burden^H4853 of Nineveh^H5210. The book^H5612 of the vision^H2377 of Nahum^H5151 the Elkoshite^H0512.

²God^H0410 is jealous^H7072, and the LORD^H3068 revengeth^H5358; the LORD^H3068 revengeth^H5358, and is furious^H1167; the LORD^H3068 will take vengeance^H5358 on his adversaries^H6862, and he reserveth^H5201 wrath for his enemies^H0341. ³The LORD^H3068 is slow^H0750 to anger^H0639, and great^H1419 in power^H3581, and will not at all^H5352 acquit^H5352 the wicked: the LORD^H3068 hath his way^H1870 in the whirlwind^H5492 and in the storm^H8183, and the clouds^H6051 are the dust^H0080 of his feet^H7272. ⁴He rebuketh^H1605 the sea^H3220, and maketh it dry^H2717, and drieth up^H3001 all the rivers^H5104: Bashan^H1316 languisheth^H0535, and Carmel^H3760, and the flower^H6525 of Lebanon^H3844 languisheth^H0535. ⁵The mountains^H2022 quake^H7493 at him, and the hills^H1389 melt^H4127, and the earth^H0776 is burned^H5375 at his presence^H6440, yea, the world^H8398, and all that dwell^H3427 therein. ⁶Who can stand^H5975 before^H6440 his indignation^H2195? and who can abide^H6965 in the fierceness^H2740 of his anger^H0639? his fury^H2534 is poured out^H5413 like fire^H0784, and the rocks^H6697 are thrown down^H5422 by him. ⁷The LORD^H3068 is good^H2896, a strong hold^H4581 in the day^H3117 of trouble^H6869; and he knoweth^H3045 them that trust^H2620 in him. ⁸But with an overrunning^H5674 flood^H7858 he will make^H6213 an utter end^H3617 of the place^H4725 thereof, and darkness^H2822 shall pursue^H7291 his enemies^H0341.

⁹What do ye imagine^H2803 against the LORD^H3068? he will make^H6213 an utter end^H3617: affliction^H6869 shall not rise up^H6965 the second time^H6471. ¹⁰For while they be folden together^H5440 as thorns^H5518, and while they are drunken^H5433 as drunkards^H5435, they shall be devoured^H0398 as stubble^H7179 fully^H4392 dry^H3002. ¹¹There is one come out^H3318 of thee, that imagineth^H2803 evil^H7451 against the LORD^H3068, a wicked^H1100 counsellor^H3289. ¹²Thus saith^H0559 the LORD^H3068; Though they be quiet^H8003, and likewise many^H7227, yet thus shall they be cut down^H1494, when he shall pass through^H5674. Though I have afflicted^H6031 thee, I will afflict^H6031 thee no more. ¹³For now will I break^H7665 his yoke^H4132 from off thee, and will burst^H5423 thy bonds^H4147 in sunder^H5423. ¹⁴And the LORD^H3068 hath given a commandment^H6680 concerning thee, that no more of thy name^H8034 be sown^H2232: out of the house^H1004 of thy gods^H0430 will I cut off^H3772 the graven image^H6459 and the molten image^H4541: I will make^H7760 thy grave^H6913; for thou art vile^H7043. ¹⁵Behold upon the mountains^H2022 the feet^H7272 of him that bringeth good tidings^H1319, that publisheth^H8085 peace^H7965! O Judah^H3063, keep^H2287 thy solemn feasts^H2282, perform^H7999 thy vows^H5088: for the wicked^H1100 shall no more^H3254 pass through^H5674 thee; he is utterly cut off^H3772.

Nahum: Chapter 2

¹He that dasheth in pieces^H6327 is come up^H5927 before thy face^H6440: keep^H5341 the munition^H4694, watch^H6822 the way^H1870, make thy loins^H4975 strong^H2388, fortify^H0553 thy power^H3581 mightily^H3966. ²For the LORD^H3068 hath turned away^H7725 the excellency^H1347 of Jacob^H3290, as the excellency^H1347 of Israel^H3478: for the emptiers^H1238 have emptied them out^H1238, and marred^H7843 their vine branches^H2156. ³The shield^H4043 of his mighty men^H1368 is made red^H0119, the valiant^H2428 men^H0582 are in scarlet^H8529: the chariots^H7393 shall be with flaming^H0784 torches^H6393 in the day^H3117 of his preparation^H3559, and the fir trees^H1265 shall be terribly shaken^H7477. ⁴The chariots^H7393 shall rage^H1984 in the streets^H2351, they shall justle one against another^H8264 in the broad ways^H7339: they shall seem^H4758 like torches^H3940, they shall run^H7323 like the lightnings^H1300. ⁵He shall recount^H2142 his worthies^H0117: they shall stumble^H3782 in their walk^H1979; they shall make haste^H4116 to the wall^H2346 thereof, and the defence^H5526 shall be prepared^H3559. ⁶The gates^H8179 of the rivers^H5104 shall be opened^H6605, and the palace^H1964 shall be dissolved^H4127. ⁷And Huzzab^H5324 shall be led away captive^H1540, she shall be brought up^H5927, and her maids^H0519 shall lead^H5090 her as with the voice^H6963 of doves^H3123, tabering^H8608 upon their breasts^H3824. ⁸But Nineveh^H5210 is of old^H3117 like a pool^H1295 of water^H4325: yet they shall flee away^H5127. Stand^H5975, stand^H5975, shall they cry; but none shall look back^H6437. ⁹Take ye the spoil^H0962 of silver^H3701, take the spoil^H0962 of gold^H2091: for there is none end^H7097 of the store^H8498 and glory^H3519 out of all the pleasant^H2532 furniture^H3627. ¹⁰She is empty^H0950, and void^H4003, and waste^H1110: and the heart^H3820 melteth^H4549, and the knees^H1290 smite together^H6375, and much pain^H2479 is in all loins^H4975, and the faces^H6440 of them all gather^H6908 blackness^H6289.

¹¹Where is the dwelling^H4583 of the lions^H0738, and the feedingplace^H4829 of the young lions^H3715, where the lion^H0738, even the old lion^H3833, walked^H1980, and the lions^H0738 whelp^H1482, and none made them afraid^H2729? ¹²The lion^H0738 did tear in pieces^H2963 enough^H1767 for his whelps^H1484, and strangled^H2614 for his lionesses^H3833, and filled^H4390 his holes^H2356 with prey^H2964, and his dens^H4585 with ravin^H2966. ¹³Behold, I am against thee, saith^H5002 the LORD^H3068 of hosts^H6635, and I will burn^H1197 her chariots^H7393 in the smoke^H6227, and the sword^H2719 shall devour^H0398 thy young lions^H3715: and I will cut off^H3772 thy prey^H2964 from the earth^H0776, and the voice^H6963 of thy messengers^H4397 shall no more be heard^H8085.

Nahum: Chapter 3

¹Woe^H1945 to the bloody^H1818 city^H5892! it is all full^H4392 of lies^H3585 and robbery^H6563; the prey^H2964 departeth^H4185 not; ²The noise^H6963 of a whip^H7752, and the noise^H6963 of the rattling^H7494 of the wheels^H0212, and of the pransing^H1725 horses^H5483, and of the jumping^H7540 chariots^H4818. ³The horseman^H6571 lifteth up^H5927 both the bright^H3851 sword^H2719 and the glittering^H1300 spear^H2595: and there is a multitude^H7230 of slain^H2491, and a great^H3514 number of carcases^H6297; and there is none end^H7097 of their corpses^H1472; they stumble^H3782 upon their corpses^H1472: ⁴Because of the multitude^H7230 of the whoredoms^H2183 of the wellfavoured^H2896 harlot^H2181, the mistress^H1172 of witchcrafts^H3785, that selleth^H4376 nations^H1471 through her whoredoms^H2183, and families^H4940 through her witchcrafts^H3785. ⁵Behold, I am against thee, saith^H5002 the LORD^H3068 of hosts^H6635; and I will discover^H1540 thy skirts^H7757 upon thy face^H6440, and I will shew^H7200 the nations^H1471 thy nakedness^H4626, and the kingdoms^H4467 thy shame^H7036. ⁶And I will cast^H7993 abominable filth^H8251 upon thee, and make thee vile^H5034, and will set^H7760 thee as a gazingstock^H7210. ⁷And it shall come to pass, that all they that look^H7200 upon thee shall flee^H5074 from thee, and say^H0559, Nineveh^H5210 is laid waste^H7703: who will bemoan^H5110 her? whence^H0370 shall I seek^H1245 comforters^H5162 for thee?

⁸Art thou better^H3190 than populous^H0527 No^H4996, that was situate^H3427 among the rivers^H2975, that had the waters^H4325 round about^H5439 it, whose rampart^H2426 was the sea^H3220, and her wall^H2346 was from the sea^H3220? ⁹ Ethiopia^H3568 and Egypt^H4714 were her strength^H6109, and it was infinite^H0369; Put^H6316 and Lubim^H3864 were thy helpers^H5833. ¹⁰Yet was she carried away^H1473, she went^H1980 into captivity^H7628: her young children^H5768 also were dashed in pieces^H7376 at the top^H7218 of all the streets^H2351: and they cast^H3032 lots^H1486 for her honourable men^H3513, and all her great men^H1419 were bound^H7576 in chains^H2131. ¹¹Thou also shalt be drunken^H7937: thou shalt be hid^H5956, thou also shalt seek^H1245 strength^H4581 because of the enemy^H0341. ¹²All thy strong holds^H4013 shall be like fig trees^H8384 with the firstripe figs^H1061: if they be shaken^H5128, they shall even fall^H5307 into the mouth^H6310 of the eater^H0398. ¹³Behold, thy people^H5971 in the midst^H7130 of thee are women^H0802: the gates^H8179 of thy land^H0776 shall be set wide^H6605 open^H6605 unto thine enemies^H0341: the fire^H0784 shall devour^H0398 thy bars^H1280. ¹⁴Draw^H7579 thee waters^H4325 for the siege^H4692, fortify^H2388 thy strong holds^H4013: go^H0935 into clay^H2916, and tread^H7429 the morter^H2563, make strong^H2388 the brickkiln^H4404. ¹⁵There shall the fire^H0784 devour^H0398 thee; the sword^H2719 shall cut thee off^H3772, it shall eat thee up^H0398 like the cankerworm^H3218: make thyself many^H3513 as the cankerworm^H3218, make thyself many^H3513 as the locusts^H0697. ¹⁶Thou hast multiplied^H7235 thy merchants^H7402 above the stars^H3556 of heaven^H8064: the cankerworm^H3218 spoileth^H6584, and flieth away^H5774. ¹⁷Thy crowned^H4502 are as the locusts^H0697, and thy captains^H2951 as the great grasshoppers^H1462, which camp^H2583 in the hedges^H1448 in the cold^H7135 day^H3117, but when the sun^H8121 ariseth^H2224 they flee away^H5074, and their place^H4725 is not known^H3045 where^H0335 they are . ¹⁸Thy shepherds^H7462 slumber^H5123, O king^H4428 of Assyria^H0804: thy nobles^H0117 shall dwell^H7931 in the dust: thy people^H5971 is scattered^H6335 upon the mountains^H2022, and no man gathereth^H6908 them . ¹⁹ There is no healing^H3545 of thy bruise^H7667; thy wound^H4347 is grievous^H2470: all that hear^H8085 the bruit^H8088 of thee shall clap^H8628 the hands^H3709 over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness^H7451 passed^H5674 continually^H8548?
