Nahum 1:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 He roars at the sea and leaves it dry,
and all the rivers he dries up.
Laid low are Bashan and Carmel,
and the bloom of Lebanon withers;[a]
5 The mountains quake before him,
and the hills dissolve;
The earth is laid waste before him,
the world and all who dwell in it.
6 [b]Before his wrath, who can stand firm,
and who can face his blazing anger?(A)
His fury is poured out like fire,
and boulders break apart before him.
