Nam Nahum, chapter Book of Nahum, chapter 1
A revelation about Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite. The LORD1:2 When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, “LORD” or “GOD” is the translation of God’s Proper Name (Hebrew “יהוה”, usually pronounced Yahweh). is a jealous God1:2 The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “אֱלֹהִ֑ים” (Elohim). and avenges. The LORD avenges and is full of wrath. The LORD takes vengeance on his adversaries, and he maintains wrath against his enemies. Exo 20:5; Jos 24:19The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. The LORD has his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet. Psa 86:5; Job 5:18He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers. Bashan and Carmel languish. The flower of Lebanon languishes. Isa 50:2The mountains quake before him, and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, yes, the world, and all who dwell in it. Exo 19:18; Deu 32:22; Psa 97:5Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the fierceness of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken apart by him. Rev 6:17; Gen 19:24; Deu 32:22The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him. Psa 1:6; 2Ti 2:19But with an overflowing flood, he will make a full end of her place, and will pursue his enemies into darkness. What do you plot against the LORD? He will make a full end. Affliction won’t rise up the second time. For entangled like thorns, and drunken as with their drink, they are consumed utterly like dry stubble. Isa 9:18One has gone out of you who devises evil against the LORD, who counsels wickedness.
The LORD says: “Though they are in full strength and likewise many, even so they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more. Now I will break his yoke from off you, and will burst your bonds apart.”Jer 27:2
The LORD has commanded concerning you: “No more descendants will bear your name. Out of the house of your gods, I will cut off the engraved image and the molten image. I will make your grave, for you are vile.”2Ki 19:37
Behold,1:15 “Behold”, from “הִנֵּה”, means look at, take notice, observe, see, or gaze at. It is often used as an interjection. on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace! Keep your feasts, Judah! Perform your vows, for the wicked one will no more pass through you. He is utterly cut off.Isa 52:7; Rom 10:15
