Nahum 1:8-10

Christian Standard Bible

⁸But he will completely destroy Nineveh^[a]
with an overwhelming flood,^(A)
and he will chase his enemies into darkness.

⁹Whatever you^[b] plot against the Lord,
he will bring it to complete destruction;^(B)
oppression will not rise up a second time.
¹⁰For they will be consumed
like entangled thorns,^(C)
like the drink of a drunkard
and like straw that is fully dry.^[c]
