Nahum 1:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ What are you plotting against the Lord?
        He is one who can annihilate!
        Distress will not arise twice.
¹⁰ They are tangled up like thorns,
        like drunkards in their cups.
    They are consumed like stubble
        that is entirely dried up.
¹¹ From you^[a] goes out
        one who plots evil against the Lord—
            a worthless counselor!
