Nahum 3
1 Woe to the bloody city! it is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departeth not;
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 a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
Ngem ita, adda dagiti kanabsiit dagiti baut, ken ti daranudor ti karadakad dagiti pilid, ti dalagudog dagiti kabalio ken darison dagiti karwahe.
3 The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:
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 whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, 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 am against thee, saith YHWH of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.
“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 abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock.
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 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?
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 populous No, that was situate among the rivers, that had the waters round about it, whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was from the sea?
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 her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers.
Ti Etiopia ken Egipto ti pigsana, ket awan ti patinggana daytoy; Kabadangna ti Put ken Libia.
10 Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets: and they cast lots for her honourable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.
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 Thou also shalt be drunken: thou shalt be hid, thou also shalt seek strength because of 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 the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even 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 unto thine 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 waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the morter, make strong the brickkiln.
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; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts.
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 merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and flieth 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 crowned are as the locusts, and thy captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
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 slumber, O king of Assyria: thy nobles shall dwell in the dust: thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth them.
Ari ti Asiria, matmaturog dagiti pastormo; agin-innana dagiti mangiturturaymo. Naiwara-wara dagiti tattaom kadagiti bantay, ket awan ti mangurnong kadakuada.
19 There is no healing of thy bruise; thy wound is grievous: all that hear the bruit of thee shall clap the 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?
