American Standard Version (ASV) With Strong Codes

1. The burden[H4853] of Nineveh[H5210]. The book[H5612] of the vision[H2377] of Nahum[H5151] the Elkoshite[H512].

2. Jehovah[H3068] is a jealous[H7072] God[H410] and avengeth[H5358]; Jehovah[H3068] avengeth[H5358] and is full of wrath[H1167]; Jehovah[H3068] taketh vengeance[H5358] on his adversaries[H6862], and he reserveth[H5201] wrath for his enemies[H341].

3. Jehovah[H3068] is slow[H750] to anger[H639], and great[H1419] in power[H3581], and will by no means[H5352] clear[H5352] the guilty[H3068]: Jehovah hath his way[H1870] in the whirlwind[H5492] and in the storm[H8183], and the clouds[H6051] are the dust[H80] of his feet[H7272].

4. He rebuketh[H1605] the sea[H3220], and maketh it dry[H2717], and drieth up[H3001] all the rivers[H5104]: Bashan[H1316] languisheth[H535], and Carmel[H3760]; and the flower[H6525] of Lebanon[H3844] languisheth[H535].

5. The mountains[H2022] quake[H7493] at him[H1389], and the hills melt[H4127]; and the earth[H776] is upheaved[H5375] at his presence[H6440], yea[H8398], the world, and all that dwell therein[H3427].

6. Who can stand[H5975] before[H6440] his indignation[H2195]? and who can abide[H6965] in the fierceness[H2740] of his anger[H639]? his wrath[H2534] is poured out[H5413] like fire[H784], and the rocks[H6697] are broken asunder by him[H5422].

7. Jehovah[H3068] is good[H2896], a stronghold[H4581] in the day[H3117] of trouble[H6869]; and he knoweth[H3045] them that take refuge in him[H2620].

8. But with an over-running[H5674] flood[H7858] he will make[H6213] a full end[H3617] of her place[H4725], and will pursue[H7291] his enemies[H341] into darkness[H2822].

9. What do ye devise[H2803] against Jehovah[H3068]? he will make[H6213] a full end[H3617]; affliction[H6869] shall not rise up[H6965] the second time[H6471].

10. For entangled[H5440] like thorns[H5518], and drunken[H5433] as with their drink[H5435], they are consumed[H398] utterly[H4392] as dry[H3002] stubble[H7179].

11. There is one gone forth out[H3318] of thee[H2803], that deviseth evil[H7451] against Jehovah[H3068], that counselleth[H3289] wickedness[H1100].

12. Thus saith[H559] Jehovah[H3068]: Though they be in full strength[H8003], and likewise many[H7227], even so shall they be cut down[H1494], and he shall pass away[H5674]. Though I have afflicted[H6031] thee[H6031], I will afflict thee no more.

13. And now will I break[H7665] his yoke[H4132] from off thee[H5423], and will burst thy bonds[H4147] in sunder[H5423].

14. And Jehovah[H3068] hath given commandment[H6680] concerning thee[H8034], that no more of thy name be sown[H2232]: out of the house[H1004] of thy gods[H430] 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].

15. Behold[H2022], upon the mountains the feet[H7272] of him that bringeth good tidings[H1319], that publisheth[H8085] peace[H7965]! Keep[H2287] thy feasts[H2282], O Judah[H3063], perform[H7999] thy vows[H5088]; for the wicked[H1100] one shall no more[H3254] pass through[H5674] thee[H3772]; he is utterly cut off.
