Nahum 1:6

Half-Acrostic: Yahweh Takes Vengeance Against His Enemies

⁵ Mountains quake because of Him
And the hills dissolve;
Indeed the earth is upheaved by His presence,
The world and all the inhabitants in it.
⁶ Who can stand before His indignation?
Who can endure the burning of His anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire
And the rocks are broken up by Him.
⁷ The Lord is good,
A stronghold in the day of trouble,
And He knows those who take refuge in Him.
