Nahum 3
1 Woe to thee, O city of blood, all full of lies and violence: rapine shall not depart from thee.
Asi pay ti siudad a napnoan iti dara! Napnoan daytoy iti kinaulbod ken natakaw a sanikua; adda a kanayon ti dangdangranna.
2 The noise of the whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the neighing horse, and of the running chariot, and of the horsemen coming up,
Ngem ita, adda dagiti kanabsiit dagiti baut, ken ti daranudor ti karadakad dagiti pilid, ti dalagudog dagiti kabalio ken darison dagiti karwahe.
3 And of the shining sword, and of the glittering spear, and of a multitude slain, and of a grievous destruction: and there is no end of carcasses, and they shall fall down on their dead bodies.
Adda dagiti mangdardarup nga agkabkabalio a lallaki, sumilengsileng a kampilan, gumilapgilap a gayang, gabsuon dagiti bangkay, adu a bunton dagiti natay. Awan patingga dagiti natay; dagiti mangdardarup kadakuada ket maitubtublak kadagiti rabawda.
4 Because of the multitude of the fornications of the harlot that was beautiful and agreeable, and that made use of witchcraft, that sold nations through her fornications, and families through her witchcrafts.
Mapaspasamak daytoy gapu kadagiti naderrep nga aramid ti napintas a balangkantis, ti eksperto iti panaggamud, a mangilaklako kadagiti nasion babaen ti kinabalangkantisna, ken kadagiti tattao babaen iti pananggamgamudna.
5 Behold I come against thee, saith the Lord of hosts: and I will discover thy shame to thy face, and will shew thy nakedness to the nations, and thy shame to kingdoms.
“Kitaenyo, bumusorak kadakayo”— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin. “Ilukaiskonto ti kainmo agingga iti rupam ket ipakitak kadagiti nasion dagiti nakalemmeng a paset ti bagim, a pakaibabainam kadagiti pagarian.
6 And I will cast abominations upon thee, and will disgrace thee, and will make an example of thee.
Ipurwakkonto kenka ti makarimon a rugit ket pagbalinenka a naalas; pagbalinenka a kas maysa a banag a kitaen dagiti amin a tattao.
7 And it shall come to pass that every one that shall see thee, shall flee from thee, and shall say: Ninive is laid waste: who shall bemoan thee? whence shall I seek a comforter for thee?
Ket mapasamakto, nga amin dagiti kumita kenka ket itarayandakanto ket ibagana, 'Nadadaelen ti Nineve; siasino ti mangdung-aw kenkuana?' Sadino ti pakasarakak iti siasinoman a mangliwliwa kenka?”
8 Art thou better than the populous Alexandria, that dwelleth among the rivers? waters are round about it: the sea is its riches, the waters are its walls.
O Nineve, nasaysayaatka aya ngem ti Tebes, a naipatakder iti tengnga ti Karayan Nilo, nga adda danum iti aglawlawna, a ti sarikedkedna ket ti baybay, a ti paderna ket ti baybay mismo?
9 Ethiopia and Egypt were the strength thereof, and there is no end: Africa and the Libyans were thy helpers.
Ti Etiopia ken Egipto ti pigsana, ket awan ti patinggana daytoy; Kabadangna ti Put ken Libia.
10 Yet she also was removed and carried into captivity: her young children were dashed in pieces at the top of every street, and they cast lots upon her nobles, and all her great men were bound in fetters.
Nupay kasta, ti Tebes ket naipanaw; naibalud daytoy; narumek dagiti annakda kadagiti nagsulian dagiti kalsada; nagbibinnunot dagiti kabusorna nga agpaay kadagiti mararaem a tattaona, ket amin dagiti natan-ok a lallakina ket nakawaran.
11 Therefore thou also shalt be made drunk, and shalt be despised: and thou shalt seek help from the enemy.
Mabartekkanto met; padasemto ti aglemmeng, ken agbirukkanto iti pagkamangam manipud iti kabusormo.
12 All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with their green figs: if they be shaken, they shall fall into the mouth of the eater.
Amin dagiti pagkamangam ket kaslanto iti kayo ti igos a naluom dagiti immuna a bungana: no maigungon dagitoy, matnag dagitoy iti ngiwat dagiti mangmangan.
13 Behold thy people in the midst of thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open to thy enemies, the fire shall devour thy bars.
Kitaem, dagiti tattao iti ayanyo ket babbai; nailukat dagiti ruangan ti dagam kadagiti kabusormo; inalun-on ti apuy dagiti balunetda.
14 Draw thee water for the siege, build up thy bulwarks: go into the clay, and tread, work it and make brick.
Mapanka sumakdo iti danum a maipaay iti pannakalakub; papigsaem dagiti sarikedkedmo; inka iti ayan ti pila ket payatam ti mortar; isaganam dagiti pagsukogan kadagiti nadrilio.
15 There shall the fire devour thee: thou shalt perish by the sword, it shall devour thee like the bruchus: assemble together like the bruchus, make thyself many like the locust.
Ikisapnakanto ti apuy sadiay, ket dadaelennakanto ti kampilam. Alun-onennakanto a kas iti pangalun-on dagiti babassit a dudon iti amin a banbanag. Paadduem ti bagim a kas iti kaadu dagiti babassit a dudon, kas kaadu dagiti dadakkelen a dudon.
16 Thou hast multiplied thy merchandises above the stars of heaven: the bruchus hath spread himself and flown away.
Pinaadum dagiti pagtagtagilakoem ket ad-adda pay ngem kadagiti bituen iti langit; ngem kasda la babassit a dudon: samsamenda ti daga kalpasanna ket tumayabda.
17 Thy guards are like the locusts: and thy little ones like the locusts of locusts which swarm on the hedges in the day of cold: the sun arose, and they flew away, and their place was not known where they were.
Dagiti prinsipem ket kas kaadu dagiti dadakkelen a dudon, dagiti panguloen dagiti soldadom ket kasda la pangen ti dudon a kumpet kadagiti pader no kasta nalam-ek ti aldaw. Ngem no kasta a sumingisingen ti init, tumayabda nga awan makaamo no sadino ti pagturonganda.
18 Thy shepherds have slumbered, O king of Assyria, thy princes shall be buried: thy people are hid in the mountains, and there is none to gather them together.
Ari ti Asiria, matmaturog dagiti pastormo; agin-innana dagiti mangiturturaymo. Naiwara-wara dagiti tattaom kadagiti bantay, ket awan ti mangurnong kadakuada.
19 Thy destruction is not hidden, thy wound is grievous: all that have heard the fame of thee, have clapped their hands over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?
Awan ti mabalin a makaagas kadagiti sugatmo. Nakaro unay ti sugatmo. Agpalakpak iti ragsak dagiti amin a makangngeg iti damag maipapan kenka. Siasino aya ti nakalasat iti saan nga agbalbaliw a kinadangkesmo?
