Nahum 2
1 One who scatters advances against you, O Nineveh. Guard the fortress! Watch the road! Brace yourselves! Summon all your strength!
尼尼微啊，那打碎邦国的上来攻击你。 你要看守保障，谨防道路， 使腰强壮，大大勉力。 （
2 For the LORD will restore the splendor of Jacob like the splendor of Israel, though destroyers have laid them waste and ruined the branches of their vine.
耶和华复兴雅各的荣华， 好像以色列的荣华一样； 因为使地空虚的， 已经使雅各和以色列空虚， 将他们的葡萄枝毁坏了。）
3 The shields of his mighty men are red; the valiant warriors are dressed in scarlet. The fittings of the chariots flash like fire on the day they are prepared, and the spears of cypress have been brandished.
他勇士的盾牌是红的， 精兵都穿朱红衣服。 在他预备争战的日子， 战车上的钢铁闪烁如火， 柏木把的枪也抡起来了。
4 The chariots dash through the streets; they rush around the plazas, appearing like torches, darting about like lightning.
车辆在街上急行， 在宽阔处奔来奔去， 形状如火把， 飞跑如闪电。
5 He summons his nobles; they stumble as they advance. They race to its wall; the protective shield is set in place.
尼尼微王招聚他的贵胄； 他们步行绊跌， 速上城墙，预备挡牌。
6 The river gates are thrown open and the palace collapses.
河闸开放，宫殿冲没。
7 It is decreed that the city be exiled and carried away; her maidservants moan like doves, and beat upon their breasts.
王后蒙羞，被人掳去； 宫女捶胸，哀鸣如鸽。 此乃命定之事。
8 Nineveh has been like a pool of water throughout her days, but now it is draining away. “Stop! Stop!” they cry, but no one turns back.
尼尼微自古以来充满人民， 如同聚水的池子； 现在居民却都逃跑。 虽有人呼喊说：站住！站住！ 却无人回顾。
9 “Plunder the silver! Plunder the gold!” There is no end to the treasure, an abundance of every precious thing.
你们抢掠金银吧！ 因为所积蓄的无穷， 华美的宝器无数。
10 She is emptied! Yes, she is desolate and laid waste! Hearts melt, knees knock, bodies tremble, and every face grows pale!
尼尼微现在空虚荒凉， 人心消化，双膝相碰， 腰都疼痛，脸都变色。
11 Where is the lions’ lair or the feeding ground of the young lions, where the lion and lioness prowled with their cubs, with nothing to frighten them away?
狮子的洞和少壮狮子喂养之处在哪里呢？ 公狮母狮小狮游行、无人惊吓之地在哪里呢？
12 The lion mauled enough for its cubs and strangled prey for the lioness. It filled its dens with the kill, and its lairs with mauled prey.
公狮为小狮撕碎许多食物， 为母狮掐死活物， 把撕碎的、掐死的充满它的洞穴。
13 “Behold, I am against you,” declares the LORD of Hosts. “I will send your chariots up in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions. I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voices of your messengers will no longer be heard.”
万军之耶和华说：“我与你为敌，必将你的车辆焚烧成烟，刀剑也必吞灭你的少壮狮子。我必从地上除灭你所撕碎的，你使者的声音必不再听见。”
