Nahum 1:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 The Lord is slow to anger but great in power,
and he will never allow the guilty
to escape punishment.
He makes his way in whirlwind and storm,
and the clouds are the dust beneath his feet.
4 He rebukes the sea and leaves it dry,
and he dries up all the rivers.
Bashan and Carmel wither,
and the greenery of Lebanon fades.[a]
5 The mountains quake before him,
and the hills dissolve;
the earth collapses before him,
the world and all who live in it.
