The cause of Nineveh’s overthrow: Sennacherib’s plots against Judah.

come out of thee - O Nineveh. From thyself shall arise the source of thy own ruin. Thou shalt have only thyself to blame for it.

imagineth evil - Sennacherib carried out the imaginations of his countrymen (Nah 1:9) against the Lord and His people (2Ki 19:22, 2Ki 19:23).

a wicked counsellor - literally, “a counsellor of Belial.” Belial means “without profit,” worthless, and so bad (1Sa 25:25; 2Co 6:15).
