Nahum 1:12-14
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Promise of Judah’s Deliverance
12 This is what the Lord says:
Though they are strong[a] and numerous,
they will still be mowed down,
and he[b] will pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,[c](A)
I will afflict you no longer.(B)
13 For I will now break off his yoke from you
and tear off your shackles.
The Assyrian King’s Demise
14 The Lord has issued an order concerning you:
There will be no offspring
to carry on your name.[d](C)
I will eliminate the carved idol and cast image
from the house of your gods;(D)
I will prepare your grave,
for you are contemptible.
