Nahum 1:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 What do ye [a]imagine against the Lord? he will make an utter destruction: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
10 For he shall come as unto [b]thorns folden one in another, and as unto drunkards in their drunken-ness: they shall be devoured as stubble fully dried.
11 There [c]cometh one out of thee that imagineth evil against the Lord, even a wicked counselor.

- Nahum 1:10 Although the Assyrians think themselves like thorns that prick on all sides, yet the Lord will set fire on them, and as drunken men are not able to stand against any force, so they shall be nothing able to resist him.
