Promises of God from Nahum

“The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; the Lord takes vengeance and is filled with wrath.  The Lord takes vengeance on his foes and maintains his wrath against his enemies.  The Lord is slow to anger and great in power; he will not leave the guilty unpunished.  His way is in the whirlwind and the storm, and clouds are the dust of his feet” (1:2-3).
“The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble.  He cares for those who trust in him” (1:7).
“Whatever they plot against the Lord he will bring to an end; trouble will not come a second time” (1:9).
“Although they are unscathed and numerous, they will be cut down and pass away.  Although I have afflicted you, O Judah, I will afflict you no more.  Now I will break their yoke from your neck and tear your shackles away” (1:12-13).
