Nahum 1:13-15

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁴ King of Assyria, the Lord gave this command about you:
    “You will not have any descendants to wear your name.
I will destroy your carved idols
    and metal statues that are in the temple of your gods.
I am preparing your grave,
    because your end is coming soon!^[a]”

¹⁵ Judah, look!
    There, coming over the mountains, is a messenger bringing good news!
    He says there is peace.
Judah, celebrate your special festivals
    and do what you promised.
Those worthless troublemakers will not come through and attack you again.
    They have all been destroyed.
