Nahum 1:12-14

International Children’s Bible

“Assyria is strong and has many people.
    But it will be defeated and brought to an end.
Judah, I have punished you, my people.
    But I will punish you no more.
¹³ Now I will free you from their control.
    And I will tear away the chains with which they hold you.”

¹⁴ The Lord has given you this command, Nineveh:
    “You will not have descendants to carry on your name.
I will destroy the idols and metal images
    that are in the temple of your gods.
I will dig your grave
    because you are wicked.”
