Nahum 1:7-12New International Version (NIV)
7
The Lord is good,
a refuge in times of trouble.
He cares for those who trust in him,
8
but with an overwhelming flood
he will make an end of Nineveh;
he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness.
9
Whatever they plot against the Lord
he will bring[a] to an end;
trouble will not come a second time.
10
They will be entangled among thorns
and drunk from their wine;
they will be consumed like dry stubble.[b]
11
From you, Nineveh, has one come forth
who plots evil against the Lord
and devises wicked plans.
12 This is what the Lord says:
“Although they have allies and are numerous,
they will be destroyed and pass away.
Although I have afflicted you, Judah,
I will afflict you no more.
