Nahum 1:5 in Context — Nahum 1

3 Jehová es tardo para la ira, y grande en poder, y no tendrá [al culpado] por inocente. Jehová marcha entre la tempestad y turbión, y las nubes son el polvo de sus pies.

4 El amenaza á la mar, y la hace secar, y agosta todos los ríos: Basán fué destruído, y el Carmelo, y la flor del Líbano fué destruída.

5 Los montes tiemblan de él, y los collados se deslíen; y la tierra se abrasa á su presencia, y el mundo, y todos los que en él habitan.

6 ¿Quién permanecerá delante de su ira? ¿y quién quedará en pié en el furor de su enojo? Su ira se derrama como fuego, y por él se hienden las peñas.

7 Bueno es Jehová para fortaleza en el día de la angustia; y conoce á los que en él confían.
