Nahum 1:5

The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.

The mountains {H2022} quake {H7493} at him, and the hills {H1389} melt {H4127}, and the earth {H776} is burned {H5375} at his presence {H6440}, yea, the world {H8398}, and all that dwell {H3427} therein.

The mountains quake before him, and the hills dissolve; the earth collapses in his presence, the world and everyone living in it.

The mountains quake before Him, and the hills melt away; the earth trembles at His presence— the world and all its dwellers.

The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt; and the earth is upheaved at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
