Nahum 1:6-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
6Who can stand before His indignation? Who can endure the burning of His anger? His wrath gushes forth like fire, And the rocks are broken up by Him. 7The Lord is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble, And He knows those who take refuge in Him. 8But with an overflowing flood He will make a complete end of its site, And will pursue His enemies into darkness. 9Whatever you devise against the Lord, He will make a complete end of it. Distress will not rise up twice. 10Like tangled thorns, And like those who are drunken with their drink, They are consumed Like stubble completely dried up. 11From you has gone out One who plotted evil against the Lord, A wicked counselor.King James Version
Chapter 1
6Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him. 7The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. 8But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
9What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
10For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
11There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the LORD, a wicked counseller.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
6Who can withstand his indignation? Who can endure his burning anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; even rocks are shattered before him. 7The Lord is good, a stronghold in a day of distress; he cares for those who take refuge in him.
8But he will completely destroy Nineveh with an overwhelming flood, and he will chase his enemies into darkness.
9Whatever you plot against the Lord, he will bring it to complete destruction; oppression will not rise up a second time.
10For they will be consumed like entangled thorns, like the drink of a drunkard and like straw that is fully dry.
11One has gone out from you, who plots evil against the Lord, and is a wicked counselor.

Chapter 1
6Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the heat of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken into pieces by him. 7The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him. 8But with an overflowing flood he will make a complete end of the adversaries, and will pursue his enemies into darkness. 9What do you plot against the LORD? He will make a complete end; trouble will not rise up a second time. 10For they are like entangled thorns, like drunkards as they drink; they are consumed like stubble fully dried. 11From you came one who plotted evil against the LORD, a worthless counselor.New International Version
Chapter 1
6Who can withstand his indignation? Who can endure his fierce anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; the rocks are shattered before him. 7The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him,
8but with an overwhelming flood he will make an end of Nineveh; he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness.
9Whatever they plot against the LORD he will bring to an end; trouble will not come a second time.
10They will be entangled among thorns and drunk from their wine; they will be consumed like dry stubble.
11From you, Nineveh, has one come forth who plots evil against the LORD and devises wicked plans.
