Nahum 1:9-13
Whatever you plot against the LORD, he will completely destroy! Distress will not arise a second time.Surely they will be totally consumed like entangled thorn bushes, like the drink of drunkards, like very dry stubble.From you, O Nineveh, one has marched forth who plots evil against the LORD, a wicked military strategist.This is what the LORD says:“ Even though they are powerful– and what is more, even though their army is numerous– nevertheless, they will be destroyed and trickle away! Although I afflicted you, I will afflict you no more.And now, I will break Assyria’s yoke bar from your neck; I will tear apart the shackles that are on you.”

Psalms 89:20-52
I have discovered David, my servant. With my holy oil I have anointed him as king.My hand will support him, and my arm will strengthen him.No enemy will be able to exact tribute from him; a violent oppressor will not be able to humiliate him.I will crush his enemies before him; I will strike down those who hate him.He will experience my faithfulness and loyal love, and by my name he will win victories.I will place his hand over the sea, his right hand over the rivers.He will call out to me,‘ You are my father, my God, and the protector who delivers me.’I will appoint him to be my firstborn son, the most exalted of the earth’s kings.I will always extend my loyal love to him, and my covenant with him is secure.I will give him an eternal dynasty, and make his throne as enduring as the skies above.If his sons reject my law and disobey my regulations,if they break my rules and do not keep my commandments,I will punish their rebellion by beating them with a club, their sin by inflicting them with bruises.But I will not remove my loyal love from him, nor be unfaithful to my promise.I will not break my covenant or go back on what I promised.Once and for all I have vowed by my own holiness, I will never deceive David.His dynasty will last forever. His throne will endure before me, like the sun,it will remain stable, like the moon, his throne will endure like the skies.”( Selah)But you have spurned and rejected him; you are angry with your chosen king.You have repudiated your covenant with your servant; you have thrown his crown to the ground.You have broken down all his walls; you have made his strongholds a heap of ruins.All who pass by have robbed him; he has become an object of disdain to his neighbors.You have allowed his adversaries to be victorious, and all his enemies to rejoice.You turn back his sword from the adversary, and have not sustained him in battle.You have brought to an end his splendor, and have knocked his throne to the ground.You have cut short his youth, and have covered him with shame.( Selah)How long, O LORD, will this last? Will you remain hidden forever? Will your anger continue to burn like fire?Take note of my brief lifespan! Why do you make all people so mortal?No man can live on without experiencing death, or deliver his life from the power of Sheol.( Selah)Where are your earlier faithful deeds, O Lord, the ones performed in accordance with your reliable oath to David?Take note, O Lord, of the way your servants are taunted, and of how I must bear so many insults from people!Your enemies, O LORD, hurl insults; they insult your chosen king as they dog his footsteps.The LORD deserves praise forevermore! We agree! We agree!

Daniel 9:24-26
“ Seventy weeks have been determined concerning your people and your holy city to put an end to rebellion, to bring sin to completion, to atone for iniquity, to bring in perpetual righteousness, to seal up the prophetic vision, and to anoint a most holy place.So know and understand: From the issuing of the command to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until an anointed one, a prince arrives, there will be a period of seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will again be built, with plaza and moat, but in distressful times.Now after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one will be cut off and have nothing. As for the city and the sanctuary, the people of the coming prince will destroy them. But his end will come speedily like a flood. Until the end of the war that has been decreed there will be destruction.
