Nahum 1
1 The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ Nineve. Rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo ibuku rĩa kĩoneki kĩa Nahumu, ũrĩa Mũelikoshi.
2 El is jealous, and YHWH revengeth; YHWH revengeth, and is furious; YHWH will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.
Jehova nĩ Mũrungu ũrĩ ũiru na mwĩrĩhĩria; Jehova nĩerĩhagĩria na akaiyũrwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ. Jehova nĩerĩhagĩria harĩ thũ ciake, na agatũũria mangʼũrĩ make harĩ amuku ake.
3 YHWH is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: YHWH hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
Jehova ndahiũhaga kũrakara na nĩarĩ hinya mũnene; Jehova ndakaaga kũherithia mũndũ mwaganu. Njĩra yake ĩrĩ thĩinĩ wa rũhuho rũnene na thĩinĩ wa kĩhuhũkanio, matu namo nĩ rũkũngũ rwa makinya make.
4 He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
Akũũmaga iria, agatũma rĩhũe; ahũithagia njũũĩ ciothe. Bashani na Karimeli nĩkũhoohete, na kĩro kĩa Lebanoni gĩkaragatha.
5 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
Irĩma ithingithaga mbere yake, natuo tũrĩma tũgatweka. Thĩ ĩinainaga ĩrĩ mbere yake, o na mabũrũri mothe makainaina, na arĩa othe matũũraga kuo.
6 Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.
Nũũ ũngĩĩtiiria mathirĩ make? Nũũ ũngĩkĩũmĩrĩria marakara make mahiũ? Mangʼũrĩ make-rĩ, maitĩkaga ta mwaki; ndwaro cia mahiga igathethereka mbere yake.
7 YHWH is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.
Jehova nĩ mwega, nĩ kĩĩhitho hĩndĩ ya thĩĩna. Arĩa mamwĩhokete-rĩ, nĩamamenyagĩrĩra,
8 But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
no rĩrĩ, nĩakaniina Nineve na kĩguũ kĩnene kĩa maaĩ; nĩakaingata thũ ciake nginya nduma-inĩ.
9 What do ye imagine against YHWH? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
Ũrĩa wothe magaaciirĩra gwĩka Jehova-rĩ, we nĩakaũniina; o na thĩĩna ndũgooka hĩndĩ ya keerĩ.
10 For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
Makaarigiicwo mĩigua-inĩ na marĩĩo nĩ ndibei yao; nao magaacinwo ta maragara momũ.
11 There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against YHWH, a wicked counseller.
Nĩ harĩ ũmwe wĩyumĩrĩtie thĩinĩ waku wee Nineve, ũrĩa ũthugundaga ũũru wa gũũkĩrĩra Jehova, na akaheanaga irĩra cia waganu.
12 Thus saith YHWH: Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “O na aakorwo marĩ na arata, na nĩ aingĩ mũno-rĩ, nĩmakaniinwo, meherio. O na aakorwo nĩngũnyariirĩte, wee Juda-rĩ, ndigacooka gũkũnyariira rĩngĩ.
13 For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.
Na rĩrĩ, nĩnguunanga icooki rĩao riume ngingo-inĩ yaku, na nduange mĩnyororo ĩrĩa woheetwo nayo.”
14 And YHWH hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy elohim will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile.
Jehova nĩarutĩte watho ũgũkoniĩ, wee Nineve, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Ndũkagĩa na njiaro cia gũtũũria rĩĩtwa rĩaku. Nĩngananga mĩhianano ĩyo mĩicũhie o na ĩyo ya gũtwekio ĩrĩa ĩrĩ kũu hekarũ ya ngai ciaku. Nĩngũhaarĩria mbĩrĩra yaku, nĩgũkorwo ũrĩ kĩndũ kĩũru biũ.”
15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
Ta cũthĩrĩriai kũũrĩa irĩma-igũrũ, muone magũrũ ma mũndũ ũrĩa ũrarehe ũhoro mwega, ũrĩa wanagĩrĩra thayũ! Wee Juda-rĩ, kũngũĩra ciathĩ ciaku, na ũhingie mĩĩhĩtwa yaku. Andũ aaganu matigagũtharĩkĩra rĩngĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmakaniinwo biũ.
