Nahum 1
1 This is the burden against Nineveh, the book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite:
Faminaniana ny amin’ ny loza hanjo an’ i Ninive, dia ny bokin’ ny fahitan’ i Nahoma Elkosita.
2 The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and full of wrath. The LORD takes vengeance on His foes and reserves wrath for His enemies.
Andriamanitra saro-piaro sy mamaly heloka Jehovah; Jehovah dia Mpamaly heloka sady be fahatezerana; Jehovah dia Mpamaly ny rafilahiny Ary mitahiry fahatezerana hamelezany ny fahavalony.
3 The LORD is slow to anger and great in power; the LORD will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. His path is in the whirlwind and storm, and clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
Mahari-po Jehovah sady be hery Ary tsy mety manamarina ny meloka; Amin’ ny tadio sy ny tafio-drivotra no lalan’ i Jehovah. Ary rahona no vovoky ny tongony.
4 He rebukes the sea and dries it up; He makes all the rivers run dry. Bashan and Carmel wither, and the flower of Lebanon wilts.
Miteny mafy ny ranomasina izy ka mahatankina azy Ary mandritra ny ony rehetra; Malazo Basana sy Karmela. Ary malazo koa ny vonin’ i Libanona.
5 The mountains quake before Him, and the hills melt away; the earth trembles at His presence— the world and all its dwellers.
Mihorohoro eo anatrehany ny tendrombohitra, Sady miempo ny havoana, Ary mientanentana eo anatrehany ny tany, Dia ny tany onenana sy ny mponina rehetra ao aminy.
6 Who can withstand His indignation? Who can endure His burning anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; even rocks are shattered before Him.
Iza no mahatoetra eo anoloan’ ny fahavinirany? Ary iza no mahatanty ny firehitry ny fahatezerany? Aidina toy ny afo ny fahatezerany, Ary mirodana eo anoloany ny vatolampy.
7 The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of distress; He cares for those who trust in Him.
Tsara Jehovah, fiarovana mafy amin’ ny andro fahoriana, Ka mahalala izay mialoka aminy.
8 But with an overwhelming flood He will make an end of Nineveh and pursue His enemies into darkness.
Fa amin’ ny riaka manafotra no anafoanany ny fitoerany, Ary ny fahavalony dia henjehiny ho any amin’ ny maizina.
9 Whatever you plot against the LORD, He will bring to an end. Affliction will not rise up a second time.
Inona no heverinareo ho enti-manohitra an’ i Jehovah? Fahafonganana no hataony, Tsy hiverina fanindroany ny fahoriana.
10 For they will be entangled as with thorns and consumed like the drink of a drunkard— like stubble that is fully dry.
Fa na dia miforiporitra toy ny tsilo aza ireny Sady vonton’ ny divay mahery fibobohany, Dia ho levona tokoa toy ny vodivary maina izy.
11 From you, O Nineveh, comes forth a plotter of evil against the LORD, a counselor of wickedness.
Avy tao aminao no nivoahan’ ny anankiray izay misain-dratsy ho enti-manohitra an’ i Jehovah Sady mamoron-kevi-dratsy.
12 This is what the LORD says: “Though they are allied and numerous, yet they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, O Judah, I will afflict you no longer.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Na dia tsy latsaka isa ka mbola maro aza ireny, Dia hofongorana ihany izy ka ho levona Fa efa nampahory anao Aho, Ka tsy hampahory anao intsony.
13 For I will now break their yoke from your neck and tear away your shackles.”
Fa ankehitriny hotapahiko ny ziogany ho afaka aminao, Ary hotosako ny famatorana anao.
14 The LORD has issued a command concerning you, O Nineveh: “There will be no descendants to carry on your name. I will cut off the carved image and cast idol from the house of your gods; I will prepare your grave, for you are contemptible.”
Ary Jehovah efa nandidy ny aminao hoe: Tsy ho velo-maso intsony ny anaranao; Hataoko tapaka tsy ho ao an-tranon’ ny andriamanitrao ny sarin-javatra voasokitra sy ny sarin-javatra an-idina; Hanao ny fasana ho anjaranao Aho, satria hita fa latsa-danja ianao.
15 Look to the mountains— the feet of one who brings good news, who proclaims peace! Celebrate your feasts, O Judah; fulfill your vows. For the wicked will never again march through you; they will be utterly cut off.
Injany! any an-tendrombohitra ny tongotry ny mitondra teny soa mahafaly Sady mitory fiadanana! Tandremo ny andro firavoravoanao, ry Joda, Efao ny voadinao; Fa tsy handeha hamaky eo aminao intsony ilay tena ratsy fanahy, Indray ripaka izy rehetra.
