Nahum 1:6 Context
4He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it drie, and drieth vp all the riuers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the floure of Lebanon languisheth. 5The mountaines quake at him, and the hilles melt, and the earth is burnt at his presence, yea the world and all that dwell therein. 6Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fiercenesse of his anger? his furie is powred out like fire, and the rocks are throwen downe by him. 7The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble, & he knoweth them that trust in him. 8But with an ouer-running flood he will make an vtter ende of the place thereof, and darkenesse shall pursue his enemies.
