Nahum 1:2-4
International Children’s Bible
The Lord Is Angry with Nineveh
2 The Lord is a jealous God who gives punishment.
The Lord punishes wicked people and is filled with anger.
The Lord punishes those who are against him.
He stays angry with his enemies.
3 The Lord does not become angry quickly.
His power is great.
The Lord will not let the guilty go unpunished.
Where the Lord goes, whirlwinds and storms show his power.
The clouds are the dust that his feet kick up.
4 The Lord speaks to the sea and makes it dry.
He dries up all the rivers.
The areas of Bashan and Carmel dry up.
And the flowers of Lebanon die.

The Lord’s Anger Against Nineveh
2 The Lord is a jealous(A) and avenging God;
the Lord takes vengeance(B) and is filled with wrath.
The Lord takes vengeance on his foes
and vents his wrath against his enemies.(C)
3 The Lord is slow to anger(D) but great in power;
the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished.(E)
His way is in the whirlwind(F) and the storm,(G)
and clouds(H) are the dust of his feet.
4 He rebukes(I) the sea and dries it up;(J)
he makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel(K) wither
and the blossoms of Lebanon fade.
