== Brief summary ==
+
 
+
Nahum 1:2-10 contains an address to both Judah and Assyria jointly[1] and can be viewed as the first of four major sections in Nahum. The message of this passage is simple. God is mightier than the elements (3b-5a). He is mightier than his enemies (2-3a, 5b-6, 8-10). And he is a strong hold or refuge for those who trust in him (7).

=== '''Verse 3''' ===
+
 
+
Verse 3 is a reference to Exodus 34:6-7, repeating the parts about God's justice but leaving out the parts about his mercy.
