Nahum 1:11-13
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
11 There is one gone forth out of you [O Nineveh] who plots evil against the Lord, a villainous [a]counselor [the king of Assyria, who counsels for wickedness and worthlessness].(A)
12 Thus says the Lord: Though they be in full strength and likewise many, even so shall [the Assyrians] be cut down when [their evil counselor] shall pass away. Though I have afflicted you [Jerusalem], I will not cause you to be afflicted [for your past sins] any more.(B)
13 For now will I break his yoke from off you and will burst your bonds asunder.(C)
