nkjv@Jonah:3:10 @ Then God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God relented from the disaster that He had said He would bring upon them, and He did not do it.
nkjv@Jonah:4:2 @ So he prayed to the LORD, and said, "Ah, LORD, was not this what I said when I was still in my country? Therefore I fled previously to Tarshish; for I know that You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, One who relents from doing harm.
nkjv@Jonah:4:3 @ Therefore now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live!"
nkjv@Jonah:4:10 @ But the LORD said, "You have had pity on the plant for which you have not labored, nor made it grow, which came up in a night and perished in a night.
nkjv@Jonah:4:11 @ And should I not pity Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred and twenty thousand persons who cannot discern between their right hand and their left--and much livestock?"
nkjv@Micah:1:5 @ All this is for the transgression of Jacob And for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what are the high places of Judah? Are they not Jerusalem?
nkjv@Micah:1:10 @ Tell it not in Gath, Weep not at all; In Beth Aphrah Roll yourself in the dust.
nkjv@Micah:1:11 @ Pass by in naked shame, you inhabitant of Shaphir; The inhabitant of Zaanan does not go out. Beth Ezel mourns; Its place to stand is taken away from you.
nkjv@Micah:2:3 @ Therefore thus says the LORD: "Behold, against this family I am devising disaster, From which you cannot remove your necks; Nor shall you walk haughtily, For this is an evil time.
nkjv@Micah:2:5 @ Therefore you will have no one to determine boundaries by lot In the assembly of the LORD.
nkjv@Micah:2:6 @ "Do not prattle," you say to those who prophesy. So they shall not prophesy to you; They shall not return insult for insult.
nkjv@Micah:2:7 @ You who are named the house of Jacob: "Is the Spirit of the LORD restricted? Are these His doings? Do not My words do good To him who walks uprightly?
nkjv@Micah:2:10 @ "Arise and depart, For this is not your rest; Because it is defiled, it shall destroy, Yes, with utter destruction.
nkjv@Micah:2:12 @ "I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together like sheep of the fold, Like a flock in the midst of their pasture; They shall make a loud noise because of so many people.
nkjv@Micah:3:1 @ And I said: "Hear now, O heads of Jacob, And you rulers of the house of Israel: Is it not for you to know justice?
nkjv@Micah:3:4 @ Then they will cry to the LORD, But He will not hear them; He will even hide His face from them at that time, Because they have been evil in their deeds.
nkjv@Micah:3:5 @ Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets Who make my people stray; Who chant "Peace" While they chew with their teeth, But who prepare war against him Who puts nothing into their mouths:
nkjv@Micah:3:7 @ So the seers shall be ashamed, And the diviners abashed; Indeed they shall all cover their lips; For there is no answer from God."
nkjv@Micah:3:9 @ Now hear this, You heads of the house of Jacob And rulers of the house of Israel, Who abhor justice And pervert all equity,
nkjv@Micah:3:11 @ Her heads judge for a bribe, Her priests teach for pay, And her prophets divine for money. Yet they lean on the LORD, and say, "Is not the LORD among us? No harm can come upon us."
nkjv@Micah:4:1 @ Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the LORD's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And peoples shall flow to it.
nkjv@Micah:4:3 @ He shall judge between many peoples, And rebuke strong nations afar off; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore.
nkjv@Micah:4:4 @ But everyone shall sit under his vine and under his fig tree, And no one shall make them afraid; For the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken.
nkjv@Micah:4:7 @ I will make the lame a remnant, And the outcast a strong nation; So the LORD will reign over them in Mount Zion From now on, even forever.
nkjv@Micah:4:9 @ Now why do you cry aloud? Is there no king in your midst? Has your counselor perished? For pangs have seized you like a woman in labor.
nkjv@Micah:4:10 @ Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, Like a woman in birth pangs. For now you shall go forth from the city, You shall dwell in the field, And to Babylon you shall go. There you shall be delivered; There the LORD will redeem you From the hand of your enemies.
nkjv@Micah:4:11 @ Now also many nations have gathered against you, Who say, "Let her be defiled, And let our eye look upon Zion."
nkjv@Micah:4:12 @ But they do not know the thoughts of the LORD, Nor do they understand His counsel; For He will gather them like sheaves to the threshing floor.
nkjv@Micah:5:1 @ Now gather yourself in troops, O daughter of troops; He has laid siege against us; They will strike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.
nkjv@Micah:5:4 @ And He shall stand and feed His flock In the strength of the LORD, In the majesty of the name of the LORD His God; And they shall abide, For now He shall be great To the ends of the earth;
nkjv@Micah:5:7 @ Then the remnant of Jacob Shall be in the midst of many peoples, Like dew from the LORD, Like showers on the grass, That tarry for no man Nor wait for the sons of men.
nkjv@Micah:5:8 @ And the remnant of Jacob Shall be among the Gentiles, In the midst of many peoples, Like a lion among the beasts of the forest, Like a young lion among flocks of sheep, Who, if he passes through, Both treads down and tears in pieces, And none can deliver.
nkjv@Micah:5:12 @ I will cut off sorceries from your hand, And you shall have no soothsayers.
nkjv@Micah:5:13 @ Your carved images I will also cut off, And your sacred pillars from your midst; You shall no more worship the work of your hands;
nkjv@Micah:5:15 @ And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury On the nations that have not heard."
nkjv@Micah:6:1 @ Hear now what the LORD says: "Arise, plead your case before the mountains, And let the hills hear your voice.
nkjv@Micah:6:5 @ O My people, remember now What Balak king of Moab counseled, And what Balaam the son of Beor answered him, From Acacia Grove to Gilgal, That you may know the righteousness of the LORD."
nkjv@Micah:6:14 @ You shall eat, but not be satisfied; Hunger shall be in your midst. You may carry some away, but shall not save them; And what you do rescue I will give over to the sword.
nkjv@Micah:6:15 @ "You shall sow, but not reap; You shall tread the olives, but not anoint yourselves with oil; And make sweet wine, but not drink wine.
nkjv@Micah:7:1 @ Woe is me! For I am like those who gather summer fruits, Like those who glean vintage grapes; There is no cluster to eat Of the first-ripe fruit which my soul desires.
nkjv@Micah:7:2 @ The faithful man has perished from the earth, And there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; Every man hunts his brother with a net.
nkjv@Micah:7:4 @ The best of them is like a brier; The most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge; The day of your watchman and your punishment comes; Now shall be their perplexity.
nkjv@Micah:7:5 @ Do not trust in a friend; Do not put your confidence in a companion; Guard the doors of your mouth From her who lies in your bosom.
nkjv@Micah:7:6 @ For son dishonors father, Daughter rises against her mother, Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; A man's enemies are the men of his own household.
nkjv@Micah:7:8 @ Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; When I fall, I will arise; When I sit in darkness, The LORD will be a light to me.
nkjv@Micah:7:10 @ Then she who is my enemy will see, And shame will cover her who said to me, "Where is the LORD your God?" My eyes will see her; Now she will be trampled down Like mud in the streets.
nkjv@Micah:7:18 @ Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy.
nkjv@Nahum:1:3 @ The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, And will not at all acquit the wicked. The LORD has His way In the whirlwind and in the storm, And the clouds are the dust of His feet.
nkjv@Nahum:1:4 @ He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, And dries up all the rivers. Bashan and Carmel wither, And the flower of Lebanon wilts.
nkjv@Nahum:1:7 @ The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him.
nkjv@Nahum:1:9 @ What do you conspire against the LORD? He will make an utter end of it. Affliction will not rise up a second time.
nkjv@Nahum:1:12 @ Thus says the LORD: "Though they are safe, and likewise many, Yet in this manner they will be cut down When he passes through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more;
nkjv@Nahum:1:13 @ For now I will break off his yoke from you, And burst your bonds apart."
nkjv@Nahum:1:14 @ The LORD has given a command concerning you: "Your name shall be perpetuated no longer. Out of the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the molded image. I will dig your grave, For you are vile."
nkjv@Nahum:1:15 @ Behold, on the mountains The feet of him who brings good tidings, Who proclaims peace! O Judah, keep your appointed feasts, Perform your vows. For the wicked one shall no more pass through you; He is utterly cut off.
nkjv@Nahum:2:4 @ The chariots rage in the streets, They jostle one another in the broad roads; They seem like torches, They run like lightning.
nkjv@Nahum:2:5 @ He remembers his nobles; They stumble in their walk; They make haste to her walls, And the defense is prepared.
nkjv@Nahum:2:8 @ Though Nineveh of old was like a pool of water, Now they flee away. "Halt! Halt!" they cry; But no one turns back.
nkjv@Nahum:2:9 @ Take spoil of silver! Take spoil of gold! There is no end of treasure, Or wealth of every desirable prize.
nkjv@Nahum:2:11 @ Where is the dwelling of the lions, And the feeding place of the young lions, Where the lion walked, the lioness and lion's cub, And no one made them afraid?
nkjv@Nahum:2:12 @ The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs, Killed for his lionesses, Filled his caves with prey, And his dens with flesh.
nkjv@Nahum:2:13 @ "Behold, I am against you," says the LORD of hosts, "I will burn your chariots in smoke, and the sword shall devour your young lions; I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers shall be heard no more."
nkjv@Nahum:3:2 @ The noise of a whip And the noise of rattling wheels, Of galloping horses, Of clattering chariots!
nkjv@Nahum:3:8 @ Are you better than No Amon That was situated by the River, That had the waters around her, Whose rampart was the sea, Whose wall was the sea?
nkjv@Nahum:3:10 @ Yet she was carried away, She went into captivity; Her young children also were dashed to pieces At the head of every street; They cast lots for her honorable men, And all her great men were bound in chains.
nkjv@Nahum:3:17 @ Your commanders are like swarming locusts, And your generals like great grasshoppers, Which camp in the hedges on a cold day; When the sun rises they flee away, And the place where they are is not known.
nkjv@Nahum:3:18 @ Your shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria; Your nobles rest in the dust. Your people are scattered on the mountains, And no one gathers them.
nkjv@Nahum:3:19 @ Your injury has no healing, Your wound is severe. All who hear news of you Will clap their hands over you, For upon whom has not your wickedness passed continually?
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:2 @ O LORD, how long shall I cry, And You will not hear? Even cry out to You, "Violence!" And You will not save.
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:5 @ "Look among the nations and watch-- Be utterly astounded! For I will work a work in your days Which you would not believe, though it were told you.

nkjv@Habakkuk:1:12 @ Are You not from everlasting, O LORD my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O LORD, You have appointed them for judgment; O Rock, You have marked them for correction.
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:13 @ You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, And cannot look on wickedness. Why do You look on those who deal treacherously, And hold Your tongue when the wicked devours A person more righteous than he?
nkjv@Habakkuk:1:14 @ Why do You make men like fish of the sea, Like creeping things that have no ruler over them?
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:3 @ For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:4 @ "Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.

nkjv@Habakkuk:2:13 @ Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts That the peoples labor to feed the fire, And nations weary themselves in vain?
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:14 @ For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, As the waters cover the sea.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:17 @ For the violence done to Lebanon will cover you, And the plunder of beasts which made them afraid, Because of men's blood And the violence of the land and the city, And of all who dwell in it.
