Nahum 1:3-5

Common English Bible

³ The Lord is very patient but great in power;
        the Lord punishes.
    His way is in whirlwind and storm;
        clouds are the dust of his feet.
⁴ He can blast the sea and make it dry up;
        he can dry up all the rivers.
    Bashan and Carmel wither;
        the bud of Lebanon withers.
⁵ The mountains quake because of him;
        the hills melt away.
The earth heaves before him—
        the world and all who dwell in it.
