Nahum 1:9-13

Thomson(i) 9 What are you devising against the Lord? He will make complete destruction, and not punish twice by distress for the same thing. 10 Because one shall be utterly destroyed, and consumed like bindweed and dry stubble; 11 shall a reasoning against the Lord proceed from thee; wicked city, devising2 things in opposition? 12 Thus saith the Lord, With respect to the ruler of many waters! they shall be so dispersed, that what thou hearest shall be heard no more. 13 I will now break his sceptre from thee, and burst the bands asunder.
