Nahum 1:7

New Living Translation

⁷ The Lord is good,
    a strong refuge when trouble comes.
    He is close to those who trust in him.

 

 

 

Nahum 1:7-10

The Message

^7-10 God is good,
    a hiding place in tough times.
He recognizes and welcomes
    anyone looking for help,
No matter how desperate the trouble.
    But cozy islands of escape
He wipes right off the map.
    No one gets away from God.
Why waste time conniving against God?
    He’s putting an end to all such scheming.
For troublemakers, no second chances.
    Like a pile of dry brush,
Soaked in oil,
    they’ll go up in flames.
