Nahum
The Lord is a powerful and vengeful God who will punish his enemies, including the city of Nineveh, for its violence, lies, and corruption. Despite being slow to anger, the Lord will utterly destroy Nineveh, breaking the yoke of oppression from his people and silencing the city's messengers. The city's once-mighty warriors will flee in fear, its riches will be plundered, and its people will stumble over corpses as the city is left desolate. The Lord compares Nineveh to No, a city that was also destroyed despite its strength, and warns that Nineveh will suffer a similar fate, with no healing for its wounds.
