Nahum 1
1 The burden of Ninive. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elcesite.
Ọ̀rọ̀-ìmọ̀ nípa Ninefe. Ìwé ìran Nahumu ará Elkoṣi.
2 The Lord is a jealous God, and a revenger: the Lord is a revenger, and hath wrath: the Lord taketh vengeance on his adversaries, and he is angry with his enemies.
Ọlọ́run ń jẹ owú, ó sì ń gbẹ̀san, Olúwa ń gbẹ̀san, ó sì kún fún ìbínú. Olúwa ń gbẹ̀san lára àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀. Ìbínú rẹ̀ kò sì yí padà lórí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
3 The Lord is patient, and great in power, and will not cleanse and acquit the guilty. The Lord’s ways are in a tempest, and a whirlwind, and clouds are the dust of his feet.
Olúwa lọ́ra láti bínú, ó sì tóbi ní agbára; Olúwa kì yóò fi àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀ láìjìyà. Ọ̀nà rẹ̀ wà nínú afẹ́fẹ́ àti nínú ìjì, ìkùùkuu sánmọ̀ sì ni eruku ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
4 He rebuketh the sea, and drieth it up: and bringeth all the rivers to be a desert. Basan languisheth and Carmel: and the dower of Libanus fadeth away.
Ó bá òkun wí, ó sì mú kí ó gbẹ; Ó sìsọ gbogbo odò di gbígbẹ. Baṣani àti Karmeli sì rọ. Ìtànná Lebanoni sì rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
5 The mountains tremble at him, and the hills are made desolate: and the earth hath quaked at his presence, and the world, and all that dwell therein.
Àwọn òkè ńlá wárìrì níwájú rẹ̀, àwọn òkè kéékèèké sì di yíyọ́, ilẹ̀ ayé sì jóná níwájú rẹ̀, àní ayé àti gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé inú rẹ̀.
6 Who can stand before the face of his indignation? and who shall resist in the fierceness of his anger? his indignation is poured out like fire: and the rocks are melted by him.
Ta ni ó lé dúró níwájú ìbínú rẹ̀? Ta ni ó lé faradà gbígbóná ìbínú rẹ̀? Ìbínú rẹ̀ tú jáde bí iná; àwọn àpáta sì fọ́ túútúú níwájú rẹ̀.
7 The Lord is good and giveth strength in the day of trouble: and knoweth them that hope in him.
Rere ni Olúwa, òun ni ààbò ní ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú. Òun sì tọ́jú àwọn tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé e,
8 But with a flood that passeth by, he will make an utter end of the place thereof: and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
ṣùgbọ́n pẹ̀lú ìkún omi ńlá ní òun yóò fi ṣe ìparun láti ibẹ̀ dé òpin; òkùnkùn yóò sì máa lépa àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
9 What do ye devise against the Lord? he will make an utter end: there shall not rise a double affliction.
Kí ni ẹ̀yìn ń gbìmọ̀ lòdì sí Olúwa? Òun yóò fi òpin sí i, ìpọ́njú kì yóò wáyé ní ìgbà kejì.
10 For as thorns embrace one another: so while they are feasting and drinking together, they shall be consumed as stubble that is fully dry.
Wọn yóò sì lọ́lù papọ̀ bí ẹ̀gún òṣùṣú wọn yóò sì mu àmupara nínú ọtí wáìnì wọn a ó sì run wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bi àgékù koríko gbígbẹ.
11 Out of thee shall come forth one that imagineth evil against the Lord, contriving treachery in his mind.
Láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, ìwọ Ninefe, ni ẹnìkan ti jáde wá tí ó ń gbèrò ibi sí Olúwa ti ó sì ń gbìmọ̀ búburú.
12 Thus saith the Lord: Though they were perfect: and many of them so, yet thus shall they be cut off, and he shall pass: I have afflicted thee, and I will afflict thee no more.
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Bí wọ́n tilẹ̀ ni ìfọwọ́sowọ́pọ̀, tí wọ́n sì pọ̀ níye, ṣùgbọ́n, báyìí ní a ó ké wọn lulẹ̀, nígbà tí òun ó bá kọjá. Bí mo tilẹ̀ ti pọ́n ọ lójú ìwọ Juda, èmi kì yóò pọ́n ọ lójúmọ́.
13 And now I will break in pieces his rod with which he struck thy back, and I will burst thy bonds asunder.
Nísinsin yìí ni èmi yóò já àjàgà wọn kúrò ní ọrùn rẹ èmi yóò já ṣẹ́kẹ́ṣẹkẹ̀ rẹ dànù.”
14 And the Lord will give a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name shall be sown: I will destroy the graven and molten thing out of the house of thy God, I will make it thy grave, for thou art disgraced.
Olúwa ti fi àṣẹ kan lélẹ̀ nítorí tìrẹ Ninefe: “Ìwọ kì yóò ni irú-ọmọ láti máa jẹ́ orúkọ rẹ mọ́, Èmi yóò pa ère fínfín àti ère dídà run tí ó wà nínú tẹmpili àwọn ọlọ́run rẹ. Èmi yóò wa ibojì rẹ, nítorí ẹ̀gbin ni ìwọ.”
15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, and that preacheth peace: O Juda, keep thy festivals, and pay thy vows: for Belial shall no more pass through thee again, he is utterly cut off.
Wò ó, lórí àwọn òkè, àwọn ẹsẹ̀ ẹni tí ó mú ìròyìn ayọ̀ wá, ẹni tí ó ń kéde àlàáfíà. Ìwọ Juda, pa àṣẹ rẹ tí ó ní ìrònú mọ́, kí ó sì san àwọn ẹ̀jẹ́ rẹ. Àwọn ènìyàn búburú kì yóò sì gbóguntì ọ́ mọ́; wọn yóò sì parun pátápátá.
