Nahum 3
1 Woe to the bloody city! It is all full of lies and rapine; the prey departeth not.
We nu sin siti kikiap ac akmas se Su sessesla ke mwe kasrup ma ac fah pusrla ac utukelik.
2 Hark! the whip, and hark! the rattling of the wheels; and prancing horses, and bounding chariots;
Porongo kusen sringsring lun mwe sringsring, Erarak lun wheel in mwe kasrusr uh, Pusren kasrusr lun horse uh, Ac srosro lun chariot uh!
3 The horseman charging, and the flashing sword, and the glittering spear; and a multitude of slain, and a heap of carcases; and there is no end of the corpses, and they stumble upon their corpses;
Mwet kasrusr fin horse yuyak in mweun, Cutlass uh sarmelik, ac osra uh saromrom! Mwet misa uh tia ku in oekyukla — Manolos yolyak oan, Ac mwet uh ikorkor faclos.
4 Because of the multitude of the harlotries of the well-favoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her harlotries, and families through her witchcrafts.
Nineveh, su oana sie mutan kosro, el kalyeiyuk. El oasku ac sessesla ke mwe inutnut. El kiapwela mutunfacl puspis nu ke moul in kohs.
5 Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will uncover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Nineveh, nga ac kalyei kom! Nga ac fah sarukkomla, Ac lela mutunfacl uh in liye koflufol lom — Aok liye kom ke kom ac mwekinla uh.
6 And I will cast detestable things upon thee, and make thee vile, and will make thee as dung.
Nga ac fah arulana aklusrongtenye kom, Ac afinkomla ke ma na fohkfok ma mwet uh wohtwot kac. Mwet ac fah intoein kom ac sangeng ke liyeyom.
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say: 'Nineveh is laid waste; who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?'
Elos nukewa su liye kom ac kohloli liki kom. Elos fah fahk, ‘Nineveh el musalla na pwaye! Su srakna pakomutal? Su ac lungse akwoyal?’”
8 Art thou better than No-amon, that was situate among the rivers, that had the waters round about her; whose rampart was the sea, and of the sea her wall?
Nineveh, ya kom pangon kom wo liki Thebes, siti fulat lun Egypt? Oasr pac infacl soko we in karinganul oana sie kalkal — Infacl Nile ma loangeyal.
9 Ethiopia and Egypt were thy strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers.
El leumi facl Ethiopia ac Egypt, ac wangin saflaiyen kuiyal. Libya el asruoki pac nu sel.
10 Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity; her young children also were dashed in pieces at the head of all the streets; and they cast lots for her honourable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.
Ne ouinge, a mwet Thebes elos utukla nu in sruoh. Tulik srisrik natulos sringsring pac nwe ke misa ke sruwasrik in inkanek nukewa. Mwet kol lalos kapiri ke sein, utukla elos, ac kitakatelik elos nu sin mwet ma sruokolosi.
11 Thou also shalt be drunken, thou shalt swoon; thou also shalt seek a refuge because of the enemy.
Nineveh, kom pac, kom fah sruhilana ac nikinkomla. Kom ac fah suk pac in kaingla liki mwet lokoalok lom.
12 All thy fortresses shall be like fig-trees with the first-ripe figs: if they be shaken, they fall into the mouth of the eater.
Pot ku lom nukewa ac fah oana sak fig su mwesrla fahko: osrokak sropon sak an, na fokinsak olo fah putat nu inwalum!
13 Behold, thy people in the midst of thee are women; the gates of thy land are set wide open unto thine enemies; the fire hath devoured thy bars.
Mwet mweun lom elos munas oana mutan uh, ac mutunpot in facl sum ikakelik nu sin mwet lokoalok lom. Firir in e ac fah esukak polosak lulap sruokyen mutunpot lom.
14 Draw thee water for the siege, strengthen thy fortresses; go into the clay, and tread the mortar, lay hold of the brickmould.
Ut kof me, ac akkeyala pot ku lom meet liki ac kuhlusyuki kom! Futungya fohk kle in orek brick, ac akoela form nu kac!
15 There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall devour thee like the canker-worm; make thyself many as the canker-worm, make thyself many as the locusts.
Kom finne akoo ma inge nukewa, kom ac nuna misa na ke e, ku anwuki ke mweun. Ac fah pokyukla kom oana fokinsak ma mongola nufon sin won srisrik locust. Mwet lom elos puseni oana locust uh!
16 Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven; the canker-worm spreadeth itself, and flieth away.
Kom akpusye mwet kuka lom nwe pus liki na itu inkusrao! Tusruktu inge elos nukewa wanginla, oana won locust su sralelik pao ac sohkla.
17 Thy crowned are as the locusts, and thy marshals as the swarms of grasshoppers, which camp in the walls in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
Mwet leum lom uh oana sie u in won locust su kaukya pesinka uh ke len mihsrisr uh. Na ke faht uh sikyak, elos sohkelik ac wangin mwet etu yen elos som nu we!
18 Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria, thy worthies are at rest; thy people are scattered upon the mountains, and there is none to gather them.
Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, governor lom elos misa, ac mwet wal fulat lom motullana nwe tok! Mwet lom elos fahsrelik fineol uh, ac wangin mwet in sifilpa usalosme nu yen selos.
19 There is no assuaging of thy hurt, thy wound is grievous; all that hear the report of thee clap the hands over thee; for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?
Wangin unweyen kinet keim uh, pwanang ac tia ku in mahla. Elos nukewa su lohng pweng ke musalla lom, elos fah paspas ke engan. Ya oasr mwet su tuh kaingkunla mwe keok upa ma kom oru?
