Nahum 1:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 For he shall come as unto [a]thorns folden one in another, and as unto drunkards in their drunken-ness: they shall be devoured as stubble fully dried.
11 There [b]cometh one out of thee that imagineth evil against the Lord, even a wicked counselor.
12 Thus saith the Lord, Though they be [c]quiet, and also many, yet thus shall they be cut off when he shall pass by: though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
